Tips and Tools for Youth Leaders
Prevention Peer Network
Author: Breakthrough U.S.
The Partnership and Breakthrough will co-host this webinar to provide tips, tools, and case studies for youth leaders on transforming a culture of gender-based violence (GBV) in their campus/school ecosystems. Using fun videos, analysis frameworks, and interactive discussions, Breakthrough will address the following:
- How can culture or social norm change prevent GBV?
- A framework for performing an analysis of norms and practices that drive harm and levers for transforming them
- A nuanced view of intersectionality and why it matters: leveraging our sites of oppression, power, and privilege to drive change
- Case studies of youth leaders making their communities safer and more inclusive for/with their peers
- Helpful tips on engaging men (who often perceive GBV as “not their issue”)
- Exploring what resources you have at your disposal to drive change in your community
- Leveraging Breakthrough’s Action Hotline to create safe schools, healthy relationships, and a culture of consent
