SVPRO offers free workshops, programming, and educational opportunities for UBC students, faculty, and staff. These initiatives address the root causes of sexual and gender-based violence, promote a culture of consent, strengthen trauma-informed responses to disclosures, and build knowledge and skills to better support survivors and those impacted by sexual and gender-based violence.
Workshops
SVPRO offers a range of educational opportunities, including workshops, panels, brief SVPRO introductions, meet-and-greets, and other activities for groups of 10 or more participants.
