This survey is part of a University of the Arts Helsinki's master's thesis. This thesis aims to examine experiences of inappropriate behaviour and harassment among arts and culture professionals. TAKU is working on compiling instructions on facing inappropriate behaviour and harassment. The results from this survey and the thesis are used as background material in compiling the instructions and in promotion of interest related to the survey's topic.
