Of Doctors By Doctors: International is a research anthology. While the Introduction, Conclusion, and Australia chapter are each authored by our Editorial team, all other chapters are authored by different contributors, hailing from all around the world. The book is divided into 4 sections:

Section 1: Context

This section provides a brief holistic introduction to the issue of sexual harassment of doctors by doctors in a broadly international scope.

Section 2: Interdisciplinary Lenses

This section discusses the dilemmas encountered at different systemic levels when attempting to address the issue of sexual harassment of doctors by doctors.

Section 3: International Perspectives

This section presents case studies from different countries around the world, aiming to provide insight into the cultural, sociohistorical, and institutional influences on the narrative trajectory of sexual harassment of doctors by doctors.

Section 4: The Way Forward

This section provides insight into the perspectives of current medical students, who are looking to this medical culture as their future profession, and explores different theories of how to bring about cultural change as a medical student, as a grassroots advocate, and as a leader in the workplace.

Section 3: International Perspectives

This section presents case studies from different countries around the globe, aiming to provide insight into the cultural, sociohistorical, and institutional influences on the narrative trajectory of sexual harassment of doctors by doctors. Each chapter features:

• a description of the cultural contexts in which the case study takes place
• the case study, loosely following the methodology of Stone, Douglas, and Phillips (2019)
• A reflective essay, using the case study and context to guide analysis and reflection on that country’s achievements, failures, barriers, and potential new directions to prevent and manage the sexual harassment of doctors by doctors.

These chapters are currently grouped by WHO region, to ensure that we engage a sufficiently broad range of perspectives.

We are very conscious that our core editors are all white Australian GPs, and that our perspectives could potentially dominate the conversation. In the interest of generating a diverse and balanced platform for these perspectives, we welcome contact from researchers and advocates from all areas of the globe and from different disciplines who wish to talk about their own communities. While we are no longer seeking chapter contributions for the book, this project is part of a broader international dialogue, and we want to continue its momentum. We are currently in the process of extending this project in the form of an observatory, to ensure that publication of the book does not close the door on other stories being told, and heard. If you want to engage in this continuing dialogue, please reach out to us using the form below.
