ConsentFEST 2012

ConsentFEST Halifax 2012 Poster Have you heard of ConsentFEST yet?

ConsentFEST is a 1.5 day conference presented by the South House Sexual and Gender Resource Centre (aka SoHo, formerly the Dalhousie Women’s Centre) and the Saint Mary’s Women’s Centre.

ConsentFEST strives to create spaces where everyone can gain a broader understanding of how consent narratives, sex-positivity, and challenging rape culture can come together to create a world based in consent.

ConsentFEST intends to invite conversation, encourage critical & creative thinking, and to foster a new common language surrounding consent.

Hollaback! Halifax is going to be there, and we’d like to see you there too! We’re looking forward to a panel discussion about what consent means. Please join us to talk about Consent Culture and how we can get there.

For more information, check out the ConsentFEST blog, or find them on Twitter or Facebook.

We intend to put an end to catcalling, groping, stalking, public masturbation, assaults, racial slurs, and other forms of street harassment. We believe we have the power to create a world where we can feel hot, confident, and badass, while still feeling safe. Everyone deserves to be able to walk our streets without fear.
