Series to promote awareness and prevention of gender-based violence

A series of four interactive workshops on gender-based violence is designed to engage men and boys in conversations about intervention strategies, allyship, and the power of speaking up.

“If not you, then who? If not now, then when?” is sponsored by the Sahra Bulle Foundation in partnership with Unifor Local 2458.

It will explore four key themes:

  • Silence is Not Protection, Silence is Permission
  • Waiting for a Hero — Why the Change Starts with You
  • Single Steps Make the Mile — Small Actions, Big Impact
  • The Value of Advocacy — Your Voice, Your Action, Your Stand

The workshops are scheduled for 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. at the Unifor hall at 3400 Somme Ave. on the last Thursday of each month: March 27, April 24, May 29, and June 26.
