Consent: Beyond the Basics

Consent: Beyond the Basics

This workshop explores some of the complexities of consent and works to expand your understanding of consent beyond the basics of “no means no,” and enthusiastic YESes.

It is designed for those who are looking to build a more nuanced and in depth practice of consent, negotiation, as well as provide tools for navigating common challenges like power dynamics, histories of trauma, reading body language, and coping with miscommunications and consent violations. The workshop will primarily be lecture based, with space for audience participation and questions throughout.

Content:

• Nuances of negotiation

• Spectrum of enthusiasm

• Body language cues

• Wheel of Consent

• Navigating power dynamics

• Influence of past trauma

• Coping with miscommunication, consent violations, and regret
