“We need to speak more openly about the stigma that survivors of sexual harassment face. Survivor centred justice is elusive and often conflated with ‘investigations’ and ‘closing cases’. It is easy for survivors to become pawns in those processes. We need to use our seat at the table to demand new, kinder processes that can ensure transparency and fairness while guaranteeing to protect women as they come forward and throughout the journey.”
