The Commission des Femmes en Astronomie performed a detailed analysis for the subpopulation of European physicists of the recent international survey of sexism and sexual harassment in science, conducted by the polling institute IPSOS for the L'Oréal Foundation for Women in Sciences, with the help of the association Femmes et Sciences. This study confirms, similarly to the results obtain for the international sample, the ubiquitous nature of sexism and sexual harassment in European physics communities, with 88% of the women taking part in the study having been victim of sexism at least once in their career, and 54 % of sexual harassment. The survey clearly documents the impact of sexual misconducts on physical and mental health. We finally demonstrate the failure of the institutions to fight sexual violence, as only 5% of the victims seek help within their institution.Read less <
