Speaking Up by Sex Matters

We all come across discrimination. Whether it's directed at us or anyone else, unfortunately it's almost everywhere. Fortunately, you can do something about it yourself! In the Speaking Up workshop, you will learn what counts as discrimination and harassment, why that is bad, and how you can effectively stand up for (or addressing) it to someone. We will go into sexist, racist, and homophobic comments and what it does to someone if these (sometimes seemingly innocent/small) comments are addressed to you.

Sign up now!

In this workshop, you will learn to recognize these situations and how to respond to them. The result is that victims feel seen and supported and that harassment and discrimination are addressed. 

This event is part of the UM Wellbeing Week. Click here for the full programme and further information.
