In response to the revelations of harassment in the Theatre, the #MeToo and #IrishWeinstein hashtags Women in Film & TV Ireland have collaborated with members of Waking the Feminists to produce a toolkit on how to deal with harassment. It is a detailed guide of what to do if you are experiencing issues like this; including making a complaint at work, when to make a criminal complaint, useful information on who to contact and links to get further information. We hope our members will it find useful and encourage you to disseminate it as much as possible.
You can read and download the ‘Harassment Toolkit’ here:
