FREE Bystander Action Training – Townsville

We are pleased to offer tickets to these workshops at NO COST to participants. Your enrolment is proudly supported by Community Recovery.
Lifeline Training is offering Bystander Action Training to assist building communities that do not allow violence against women to continue.
Overview
When we speak of domestic and family violence, the majority of people think of physical violence and visible injuries. Domestic and family violence includes a range of acts and behaviours that function to control and exert power over another person with whom there is a relevant relationship.

Bystander Action Training is about building communities that do not allow violence against women to continue. Each of us has a part to play in preventing domestic violence and family violence.

The Bystander Approach offers a framework in which everyone has a positive role to play in violence prevention and intervention.

Aim
Participants will gain understanding of what constitutes violence against women and awareness of the harm caused by violence against women.

Learning Objectives
• How to speak up and challenge attitudes, beliefs and behaviours that perpetuate violence against women.

• What it means to be an active bystander.

• The tools you need to make a difference within your families, peers, workplaces and communities.

Participants will discover that collective and individual actions can prevent and respond to domestic and family violence.
