In the aftermath of the MeToo movement, many people have been compelled to reconcile with the fact that their loved ones have caused harm to others by perpetrating gender-based violence or relationship abuse. It can be difficult to know how to respond when a loved one is accused of causing harm. One may feel obligated to prioritise social responsibility over their need to process feelings of shock, betrayal, and fear. If the perpetrator is a family member, it can be even more complicated to understand how to navigate such a situation.

The Centre for Restoration works on issues of gender-based violence from a research-backed, trauma-informed lens. Through this online workshop, we want to empower the immediate communities of perpetrators to understand violence, build resilience, and be effective bystanders.

What You’ll Discover:

• Understanding effective accountability for situations of gender-based violence
• Insights into harm mitigation
• Unpacking social ostracisation; whether it is necessary and what to do in situations where it is impossible
• Practical tips for taking care of yourself
• A sense of belonging and solidarity within our supportive community
