Everyday Conversations: Being an Active and Ethical Bystander - IDPWD

This workshop empowers participants to take safe, ethical, and confident action when witnessing harmful language and behaviour. Through practical tools and reflection, it explores how everyday language, microaggressions, and stereotypes can reinforce discrimination and create the conditions for more serious forms of violence.  

This session is aimed at people working in the disability sector and will refer to situations specific to these roles.

Participants will leave with:

• A clearer understanding of their role in creating safe and inclusive workplaces and community groups

• Practical tools for intervening safely and effectively

• Confidence to act in the moment, even when it feels uncomfortable

• An awareness of how gender, race, and power shape who gets heard and who gets harmed

The workshop will be held at Fremantle Park Sport and Community Centre, 36 Ellen St Fremantle. Please make your way upstairs for the session. There is a lift and stairs available.

Refreshments are provided.
