These workshops are designed for student leaders and cover how to be an active bystander and step in when you see problematic behaviour. They also cover how to support a peer who has experienced sexual violence. Workshops are two hours in length.

Workshops are compulsory for:

• At least one executive committee member and one committee member from each UMSU-affiliated club or society.
