Sexual Violence on Campus: A Primer
Sexual Violence on Campus: A Primer is a virtual workshop that explores the campus sexual violence landscape in Canada. We confront the issue by examining: the history of universities and the academy in Canada, including its exclusion of women and other marginal groups; the expansion of universities in the 1960s and the rise of the neoliberal state in the 1970s; the legal and policy frameworks that currently govern the issue in and across Canada; and the lived experiences and prevalence of sexual violence in campus settings. We will also be sharing information about the Sexual Violence Prevention and Response Office (SVPRO). The workshop will be facilitated by Ravita Surajbali, Evaluation Specialist with SVPRO.
