Based on the University of New Hampshire’s acclaimed “Bringing in the Bystander” Program\, the training teaches students how to overcome resistance to checking in and intervening when they observe the potential for sexualized violence to occur. By empowering students to become active bystanders\, we hope to create a compassionate community response to preventing sexualized violence and fostering a safer environment on campus. \nIn this three hour workshop\, students will: \n\nLearn how to identify situations where bystander intervention is appropriate and how to overcome barriers to successful intervention\nGain a deeper understanding of the consequences of sexual violence for victims/survivors and communities\nLearn how to identify a continuum of inappropriate sexual behaviours\nBuild increased empathy for victims of sexual violence and understand the importance of supportive responses to those who disclose\n\nBringing in the Bystander is a free training program open to all undergraduate and graduate students. Students who complete the training will receive a certificate for participation and credit on their co-curricular record. The co-curricular record allows students to document their extracurricular volunteer and leadership activities in a university-validated document generated by UVic Co-op and Career Services. This record will provide evidence of students’ extracurricular achievements when they apply for jobs\, graduate school and scholarships.
