Sexual consent module to be rolled out in colleges to tackle violence and harassment

In a Sexual Experiences Survey conducted last June, only 37% of male students said they were very likely to say something to intervene if a friend was taking a drunk person back to their room at a party.

A new eLearning module for students aims to "close gaps in students' understanding of sexual violence and harassment".

The Active* Consent Toolkit includes information on rape, sexual assault, and sexual harassment, and how to access support services. It will be rolled out in 22 colleges, having been produced by NUI Galway's Active* Consent Programme.
