National Issues Forum: Creating a Culture of Consent

Join us for a National Issues Forum dialogue to discuss strategies to create a culture of consent on UNC's campus. High rates of sexual violence at UNC emphasize the need to work towards creating a culture of consent to prevent sexual and gender-based violence among our college community. Through this dialogue we invite students passionate about violence prevention and/or looking to learn more to share your input on what needs to happen to work towards a safer campus community. RSVP Here

This event is co-sponsored by the Student Dialogue Ambassador program supported by NC Campus Engagement, Campus Y Civic Engagement, and the Program for Public Discourse.
