Abstract
Sexual harassment in medical education is a global, structurally embedded problem driven by rigid hierarchical cultures, with trainees disproportionately exposed to higher levels of harassment. Policy recommendations reframe harassment as a public health issue, and call for trauma-informed supports, anti-retaliation protections, and psychologically safe training environments.
