Bystander Intervention Training

Our bystander intervention training instils participants with knowledge about consent and the continuum of sexual violence, and empowers our community with the skills to safely intervene, and teaches you how to address these issues confidently, according to your own interpersonal skills, and what you feel comfortable in doing. The University has a zero tolerance approach to sexual violence, harassment and hate crime and using Bystander Intervention Training® we hope to empower our community to intervene when situations arise. 

Bringing in the Bystander workshops

These workshops will help students, academics, professional services staff and community members to:

• Identify behaviours on a continuum of violence
• Develop empathy for those who have experienced violence
• Practice safe and appropriate intervention skills
• Commit to intervene before, during and after an incident of sexual abuse, relationship violence and stalking occurs
