Consent Week is spearheaded by Sexual Violence Prevention and Response Services in the Human Rights & Equity Office with support from a range of campus partners.
At 成人大片, Consent Week is a pivotal time for our community to unite, take a stand against sexual violence, and champion the creation of a consent culture on our campus. The first six weeks of the academic year, known as the Red Zone, see a significant increase in sexual violence incidents on campuses. This period calls for heightened awareness, proactive support, and a collective effort to ensure the safety and well-being of all students.
Consent Week is more than a series of events鈥攊t's a call to action. Sexual and gender-based violence is intertwined with other forms of oppression and discrimination, such as racism, homophobia, transphobia, and ableism. The fight against sexual violence must also address these interconnected systems of power and inequality. By working together, we can create an inclusive environment where everyone feels respected and safe.
Join us in this critical movement to dismantle the structures that perpetuate violence and discrimination. Together, we can foster a campus culture rooted in consent, respect, and solidarity.
