Workshops

The UMSU Sexual Harm and Response Coordinators run workshops with students at the University on Bystander Intervention and Responding to Disclosures of Sexual Assault and Harassment.

If you are interested in participating in a training please contact umsu-shrc@union.unimelb.edu.au.

 

Clubs & Societies Training:

These workshops are designed for student leaders and cover how to be an active bystander and step in when you see problematic behaviour. They also cover how to support a peer who has experienced sexual violence. Workshops are three hours in length.

It is compulsory for at least one executive committee member and one committee member from UMSU-Affiliated clubs and societies to complete a Bystander Intervention and Responding to Disclosure training.
