In this final episode of Is This OK?? Talking to Teenagers about Affirmative Consent, your host - The Man Cave Senior Facilitator, Project Coordinator and All-Round Legend Lindsay Marchment - talks to LJ, lead facilitator at Elephant Ed, Australia's leading organisation empowering people to make informed, safe and positive decisions regarding consent, relationships and sexuality. If you’re looking for insights into how young people are feeling about consent, sex, relationships and everything in between, then you’ll want to get a pen and paper out for this episode, as LJ distills their expertise into nuggets of gold we can all learn from.
In a fast-paced world with endless streams of information and content in their pockets, young people are more aware of and tuned in to conversations about sex, sexuality, consent and gender than ever before. So how do we, the adults, parents, educators and role models in their lives, talk about these subjects with them?
Is This OK?? Talking to Teenagers about Affirmative Consent is a four-part podcast series providing tools, tips and techniques to help you support young people to understand affirmative consent. The young people in our lives may not always feel comfortable broaching this topic with us - and vice versa - but that doesn’t mean the conversation can’t be had. Dive into this podcast series to learn ways of having the conversation that invites young people in.
Is This OK?? is supported by the Victorian Department of Families, Fairness and Housing, through its Supporting Young People to Understand Affirmative Consent initiative.
