Promoting Good Sex - A Method for Violence Prevention
Promoting sexual health is a necessary strategy to prevent multiple forms of violence and abuse across the lifespan. It is also incredibly valuable for our response work. It’s not enough to exclusively identify what violence is. We need to provide and support resources that connect people to healthier and safer visions of relationships, sex, and sexuality. This webinar will outline the connections between sexual health promotion and our work and provide an opportunity to explore several sexual health promotion principles that can improve the effectiveness of all of our violence prevention and response efforts.
