LOCATION:Ramada Duncan Hotel & Conference Centre :: 140 Trans Canada Hwy Duncan, V9L3P7
DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:<p>This professional development workshop will focus on sexualized violence prevention and response in an era of #MeToo and the so-called &lsquo;fourth-wave&rsquo; of feminist and gender politics; this is an era in which there is renewed interest in the topic of sexualized violence, and where activism occurs largely via social media.</p>=0D=0A=
<p>We will review the various waves of feminist politics that have brought us to a period in which sexualized violence is becoming more broadly defined. We consider the need to address sexualized violence through a focus on intersecting and oppressive attitudes and beliefs that go well beyond sexism and gender inequality.</p>=0D=0A=
<p>We will further discuss the opportunities and challenges of working in the area of sexualized violence prevention and response at a time when there is renewed public awareness and interest and a seemingly endless stream of public disclosures.</p>=0D=0A=
<p>We will end with a discussion of whether some of the primary prevention tools taught on university campuses &ndash; consent and bystander training &ndash;have application in the provision of front line social services.</p>=0D=0A=
