Discrimination and Harassment in Fundraising: A Summary of Findings from the AFP & Ohio State Univer

When:  Aug 5, 2021 from 01:00 PM to 02:00 PM (ET)

In the summer of 2020, the AFP worked with researchers from the Ohio State University (OSU) to conduct a survey on the fundraising workplace climate. A random sample of AFP members were asked to share their views about their work and work environment to represent those of the broader AFP membership and fundraising profession. Starting in February 2021, the AFP began to release short reports on preliminary results from the survey. In this short webinar, OSU researchers Drs. Erynn Beaton and Megan LePere-Schloop highlight some of the most important findings on discrimination and harassment in fundraising from the reports.
