Webinar on Preventing Sexual Harassment and Misogyny
Adults’ focus on the “hook-up culture” has obscured two much bigger issues that many young people appear to be struggling with: forming and maintaining healthy romantic relationships and dealing with widespread misogyny and sexual harassment. But parents and educators often fail to address these two problems in meaningful ways. Instead, many parents fret about having the “sex talk” with their kids and many school-based sex education programs focus on disaster prevention rather than on promoting healthy, respectful relationships.
This webinar from Share My Lesson explores our report The Talk: How Adults Can Promote Young People’s Healthy Relationships and Prevent Misogyny and Sexual Harassment, which highlights these issues and offers insight into how adults can begin to have meaningful and constructive conversations with young people to promote healthy relationships and prevent misogyny and sexual harassment in their lives.
Note: Registration is free and the webinar may fulfill one hour of PD credit.
