In the gender-specific workshops participants will learn concrete strategies to use in their daily working lives. Strategies to identify inappropriate behaviours and skillfully manage those moments, which can range from slight discomfort to verbal or physical violation.

This is an experiential training which will ensure a healthy professional environment and the emotional, mental and physical safety of participants; both at the workplace and to and from work.
Phase 2 - Program Outlines

The strategies include body language and verbal skills to effectively de-escalate harassment and potential violence as well as a practise to clarify sexual consent. Participants will learn to identify the voice of wisdom, identify inappropriate behaviours in themselves and others and assert boundaries without aggression or conflict.
