The Sexual Violence Prevention and Support Centre at the University of Toronto (UTM) wants to honour anti-Vday with you!

This workshop explores the politics of desirability and power dynamics in intimate and romantic contexts and partnerships. Participants will explore concepts of emotional and sexual labour and interrogate the gender, age, ability, race and class dynamics that determine the nature of that labour. Equitable relationship building models will be examined, participants will reflect on their learning goals and relationship challenges in order to apply learnings. Using a consent culture framework, the workshop interrogates power dynamics, encourages social consciousness and critical self reflection. Communication, transparency and accountability are core values anchoring the session.

*This event is open to all UofT faculty, staff and students.

* If you are attending and require accommodation(s), please email svpscentre@utoronto.ca directly and we will work with you to make appropriate arrangements *

Acknowledgment of Traditional Land

We wish to acknowledge this land on which the University of Toronto operates. For thousands of years it has been the traditional land of the Huron-Wendat, the Seneca and, most recently, the Mississaugas of the Credit River. Today, this meeting place is still the home to many Indigenous people from across Turtle Island and we are grateful to have the opportunity to work on this land.
