Summary/Abstract: The problem of sexual harassment at universities has been explored in western and mainly American sociology since the mid‑1970s. Since then, anti‑harassment policies and procedures (including follow‑up victim care) have been introduced at most Anglo‑Saxon universities designing how to deal with ‘harassers’ and ‘victims’. In the Czech Republic, empirical research on this issue and on university anti‑harassment policies is still lacking. The aim of this article is to introduce the methods and procedures employed at Anglo‑American universities in an effort to tackle sexual harassment. The experiences of these academic institutions represent an indispensable source of information and inspiration for the Czech higher education environment.
