Safe to Create: In-Person Active Bystander Training Workshops

There are still a number of Safe to Create: In-Person Active Bystander Training Workshops available in Galway, Dublin and Meath this spring.

This training empowers people to address and prevent harassment and discrimination in a workspace. It equips workers with the right knowledge, tools and motivation to intervene safely and stop inappropriate behaviour before it rises to the level of unlawful harassment.

Led by Professor Louise Crowley, Professor of Law at UCC and Director of the UCC Bystander Intervention Programme, and leading policy analyst and consultant Olwen Dawe, who has an established track record in developing and implementing equality, diversity and inclusion projects.

The workshops are free of charge for anyone working in the arts and creative sectors.

ACTIVE BYSTANDER TRAINING PARTICIPANT FEEDBACK:

‘It was excellent training. Clear and well delivered.’

‘It was thought provoking and engaging. The use of scenarios was particularly effective.’

‘Clear strategies to deal with bullying/toxic behaviour, a frank and forthright presentation, and very useful real-world examples to interrogate how I feel I would have responded in the past versus what I could do in the future.’
