Active Bystander Training For Volunteer Managers and Co-Ordinators (Delivered by Protection Approaches)

An “active bystander” describes somebody taking positive action to prevent or reduce harm to others when they encounter prejudice, discrimination, harassment, or identity-based violence. Being an active bystander is everyone’s responsibility – whether in moments of acute danger, or in the actions we take to tackle long-term injustices. This interactive 3 hours in-person course is led by identity-based violence prevention charity, Protection Approaches and has been developed in partnership with the Britain`s East and Southeast Asian Network (besea.n). The expert-led sessions see participants guided through a series of discussions to explore how they can play a role in tackling identity-based harms in their community, school, or place of work.
