Let’s Talk About Sexual Violence
Published: 23 October 2017
Free workshops available to all students.
This student-led initiative in partnership with Rape Crisis Scotland is a collaboration between the Glasgow University Students’ Representative Council (SRC) and Glasgow Caledonian University. It was born from students at both universities wanting to do something to tackle sexual violence, building on student activism such as the Let’s Talk campaign and forms part of the University-wide Gender Based Violence Strategy.
The workshops are delivered by University of Glasgow students, who have been trained by Rape Crisis Scotland. They have had experience in delivering the sessions and will be able to answer any questions you might have on the subject.
The 90-minute workshop includes:
- Plenty of time for discussions, sharing ideas and learning from each other
- The impacts of sexual violence
- A focus on survivors and ways to build a supportive community
- Consent, what it means, what the law says and practising it
- Bystander intervention, how to safely and comfortably intervene
- Where to find support
Open sessions are free to attend by all. Simply register to the EventBrite of the workshop you would like to attend.
