The Power of Us: How We Stop Sexual Harassment

15-02-2018 Marianne Cooper

In her TEDx talk, sociologist Marianne Cooper from Stanford University talks about her research on the root causes of sexual harassment. Furthermore, she delivers a compelling call to action, guiding us on how each individual can contribute to preventing harassment, holding offenders accountable, amplifying the voices of those who have been silenced, and collaboratively working towards creating lasting change.

Marianne Cooper is a sociologist specializing in gender and inequality at the Clayman Institute for Gender Research and the Center for Women's Leadership at Stanford University. She also has an affiliation with the Stanford Center on Poverty and Inequality. She is a contributing writer to The Atlantic and writes about gender, leadership, diversity and inclusion, financial insecurity, and economic inequality. Moreover, she has authored the 2016, 2017, and 2018 Lean In & McKinsey Women in the Workplace reports, shedding light on the status of women in corporate America. Her book, Cut Adrift: Families in Insecure Times, delves into how families cope with economic insecurity. Marianne Cooper earned her Ph.D. in sociology from the University of California, Berkeley.
