What is sexual assault and sexual harassment?
Consent
If you're struggling to understand consent, Cycling through Consent can simplify it for you. If consent is not given, or if it is revoked, it's not okay to continue.
Griffith thanks Western University for the use of this resource.
Consent Matters: Boundaries, Respect and Positive Intervention is a free online course that will help you understand sexual consent and how to recognise situations when consent can and can't be given, whatever your gender or sexuality. The course can support you in thinking about your own boundaries and how to talk about them. It also demonstrates different ways you could step in if you see or hear something you're uncomfortable with. This interactive course uses quizzes and student scenarios alongside research and resources.
Staff and students are encouraged to complete Consent Matters now available on Learning at Griffith.
Respect. Now. Always.
All members of the Griffith University community have a right to feel welcome and safe. Griffith University President and Vice Chancellor Professor Ian O’Connor speaks about how your behaviour can support this in a positive way.
