Consent Action Week: From Reflection to Action

Consent Action Week is an educational initiative happening across Ontario universities, including Queen’s University. This week is a chance to reflect on what we’ve learned about consent, take meaningful action, and explore new ways to foster safer, more inclusive communities.
Through a variety of workshops, events, and opportunities for connection, we’ll:

• Teach new skills for practicing consent in everyday life
• Develop mindfulness techniques to manage stress and build self-awareness
• Strengthen solidarity with survivors of sexual violence

As part of Consent Action Week the following workshops are also being offered:

• January 19 - Bystander Intervention Workshop (Virtual) Through the Gender Based Violence Awareness and Bystander Intervention Program. Register Now!

Together, let’s commit to building a culture of consent on our campus and beyond—one action at a time.
