Active Bystander Training in collaboration with Battersea Library

By Protection Approaches

Overview

Understanding what to do if you witness identity-based harassment or violence

This free 2 hour interactive course is led by identity-based violence prevention charity, Protection Approaches

The expert-led sessions guide participants through a series of discussions, exploring how they can safely address identity-based harms in their community, school, or workplace.

You will learn:

  • What it means to be an active bystander: through group discussion the participants explore what being an active bystander means to them
  • Standing up for those being targeted safely: working through a series of scenarios, participants consider and learn what they can do when they encounter identity-based harms such as harassment on public transport, a racist attack in a supermarket, or a prejudiced comment from a colleague
  • Proactive prevention: returning to the scenarios participants reflect on the root causes of prejudice and discrimination before discussing ways they could contribute to dismantling those root causes and to building safer, more inclusive, and just communities.

These sessions are run with the support of MOPAC's Shared Endeavour Fund.

Session details will be emailed to participants ahead of the workshop. Spaces are very limited so please cancel if you are no longer able to make the session so that your ticket can be released to another participant.
