Consent Action Week is an educational initiative held during the last week of January at universities across Ontario. The week is an opportunity for campus communities to create a dialogue about consent, pleasure, relationships and increase understanding of sexual violence. It’s also an opportunity to raise awareness of both on and off-campus services. The Ontario University Sexual Violence Network created Consent Action Week.
We’re excited to be hosting this event in partnership with Huron University, McMaster University, Toronto Metropolitan University, University of Guelph, and Wilfred Laurier University.
