Intersectional Sexualized Violence Project: New Resource Showcase
Event description
Join us for an engaging 90-minute webinar to learn about newly developed resources to help prevent, and respond to, sexualized violence at post-secondary institutions.
BCcampus collaborated with students, staff, and faculty, and a team of subject-matter experts in the B.C. post-secondary sector to develop these resources. The resources are intended to support graduate, international, and Indigenous students, and they provide foundational training on technology-facilitated sexualized violence. They were developed in partnership with the Ministry of Post-Secondary Education and Future Skills and funded by Women and Gender Equality Canada as part of the Intersectional Sexualized Violence Project.
Speakers: Samantha Matute Arrieta, Catherina Blair, Robynne Devine, Jewell Gillies, Meaghan Hagerty
Content Warning: This webinar deals with topics that may cause trauma, including discussions of sexualized violence. We encourage attendees to practice self-care and access support services as needed.
