Resumo(s)

As Portugal lived under a dictatorship for almost 50 years, policies and legislation on women’s rights began to be developed only after the instauration of democracy in 1975 (Monteiro and Ferreira, 2016). In the second half of the 20th century, especially after the feminist movement gained strength, broader discussions about sexual harassment (SH) in Portugal began to emerge. A greater awareness of SH as a form of gender-based violence and discrimination resulted from the increased consciousness surrounding issues of gender equality and women’s rights during the 1960s and 1970s. In the 80s and 90s, the debate on this issue intensified, driven by social movements and international legislation, such as the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination AgainstWomen (United Nations, 1979), to which Portugal has been a signatory since 1980.
