Sexual Violence Awareness Month (SVAM)

Join us this May as we stand together for Sexual Violence Awareness Month at the University of Waterloo! Throughout the month, we're bringing together a lineup of powerful voices with 4 dynamic speakers featuring four separate engaging virtual talks every Thursday starting May 9th from 7pm-8pm, and informative promotional booths every Wednesday beginning May 8th.

Let's spark important conversations, raise awareness, and foster a community of support. Together, we can create a campus culture of respect, safety, empowerment, and consent. Don't miss out on this vital initiative – mark your calendars and be a part of the movement for change.
