The workshop is a facilitated discussion, not a lecture. Highly interactive. Awareness raising is utilised to develop concrete options for participants to employ during a range of work or social situations – ranging from inappropriate comments to physical abuse.
Additionally, workshops open dialogue regarding participant leadership around issues such as: the drivers of gender violence as it relates to unhealthy behaviour, sexual objectification of women, sexual harassment, battering and sexual assault.Workshop Goals:
- Raise awareness of participants about the level of violence against women in our culture
- Challenge thinking by countering mainstream messages about gender, sex and violence
- Open dialogue by creating a safe environment for men and women to share their opinions and experiences about these issues
- Inspire leadership by equipping participants with concrete options to safely confront and interrupt abusive situations
