Abstract

The drivers of the harassment and intimidation of researchers are complex, widespread, and global in their reach and were being studied across many disciplines even before COVID-19. This policy briefing reviews some of the scholarship on this wide-ranging problem but focuses on what can be done to help ensure that Canadians fully benefit from the work of Canada’s researchers while also preserving the security and safety of those researchers. It identifies policies and actions that can be implemented in the near term to gather information on the problem, better frame public research communications, and ensure that mechanisms are readily available to support researchers who are threatened. The policy briefing is concerned with researchers, but these behaviours are also harming journalists, politicians, public health communicators, and many others more fully in the public eye than researchers. Some recommendations here may help to address this wider problem.

为公众保护专家意见:促进安全和改善沟通
对研究人员的骚扰和恐吓的驱动因素是复杂的、广泛的和全球性的,甚至在新冠肺炎之前就已经在许多学科中进行了研究。本次政策简报回顾了关于这一广泛问题的一些学术成果,但重点关注如何帮助确保加拿大人充分受益于加拿大研究人员的工作,同时保护这些研究人员的安全。它确定了可以在短期内实施的政策和行动,以收集有关该问题的信息,更好地制定公共研究沟通,并确保随时可用的机制来支持受到威胁的研究人员。政策简报关注的是研究人员,但这些行为也在伤害记者、政治家、公共卫生传播者,以及比研究人员更充分地在公众视野中的许多其他人。这里的一些建议可能有助于解决这一更广泛的问题。
