Are you worried sexual harassment is happening in your community, and you don’t know how to stop it? Do you know someone who has confided in you about a team or community member who makes them feel uncomfortable? Have you yourself experienced unwanted sexual attention, and hoped it would not escalate?
Do you wish you and other women knew how to keep safe, no matter where you are?
If you would like to learn different ways for staying safe so you know what to do when there’s unwanted sexual attention, or if you’d like the young women in your life to be prepared with these strategies before they go out into the world, join us on International Women’s Day on 8 March 2023.
In this participative workshop, Jacqueline Ann Surin and Sarah Scarratt will create and hold space for women to explore strategies that have kept them safe before, and to explore what else they need in order to feel safe. They will also learn other women’s strategies and consider how to adopt these into their own lives, so that each participant leaves with more strategies than at the start for keeping themselves and other women safe.
The workshop is a 1.5-hour experience of a much bigger programme that Jacqueline developed and that was supported by Clean Learning. Jacqueline and Sarah are experienced Clean Language and Systemic Modelling facilitators who work with women leaders and groups internationally.
The session is open to women of any age. Places limited to 20 women only.
This is a Spring Forward event. Spring Forward is a month-long celebration of the role of women in digital culture and runs through March in parallel with Women's History Month.
Spring Forward's mission is to encourage women to take a greater role in digital by creating a platform that promotes digital community events organised by women for women.
