About this Event

Please join Minister Simon Harris and our team on the morning of June 15th for the launch of the new five-year cycle of the Active* Consent programme, hosted at the Department of Justice in Dublin.

Supported by Lifes2good Foundation and the University of Galway Strategic Fund, the 2023-2027 programme will extend and expand on a decade of efforts to empower schools, colleges, and sports as the key settings for young people to learn about consent.

The launch event will share new highlights of our work to date – which includes surveys, campaigns, workshops, theatre and training programmes – all made possible by colleagues and supporters such as yourself.

At the event, you will hear about Active* Consent’s next chapter, including our plans to generate the knowledge we need to keep progressing on social change, and for research-based positive sexual well-being initiatives that address the needs of young people, professionals, and parents.

As part of our plans, we will seek partnerships to enhance the culture of the workplace in Ireland, and expand our outreach to an international stage.

You will also learn about our engagement with:

• School communities affected by socioeconomic disadvantage – supported by the Rethink Ireland ‘Scaling Education’ fund.

• The Further Education & Training sector – supported by the Department of Justice and Department of Further & Higher Education, Research, Innovation & Skills.

• Partner groups including Galway Rape Crisis Centre, with which we collaborate on First Point of Contact disclosure training and Consenthub.ie.

Please join us to hear about the progress you have helped us to achieve across our youth settings and in the national conversation on consent.

Time and date: 9:30AM to 11AM on Thursday June 15th

Registration and Introduction from 9:30-10AM.

Minister Simon Harris will launch the programme at 10AM sharp, so please arrive prior to this. He will be followed by speakers from the Active* Consent programme, Lifes2good Foundation, partner organisations, and Ms Cathy Connolly, Executive Director at Galway Rape Crisis Centre.
