Summer 2025

Sexual violence awareness and prevention training

This interactive training is designed to help student leaders understand how everyday behaviours, language, and attitudes can contribute to a culture that enables sexual and gender-based violence.

Through discussion and practical tools, students will learn to:

• Identify harmful behaviours and attitudes, including jokes, stereotypes, and language, that normalize violence

• Recognize how normalizing certain attitudes encourages violence

• Practice key prevention strategies, including consent, bystander intervention, and survivor support

By the end of this training, students will be better equipped to:

• Confidently intervene when witnessing attitudes or behaviours that perpetuate violence

• Model respectful, inclusive leadership within their communities and organizations

Who should attend:
This training is mandatory under Quebec government legislation (Bill 151) for student executives of accredited student organizations. Participants who complete this session do not need to take the online It Takes All of Us training.
