Reflecting on One Year of Courage to Act

Courage to Act is meant to be a “call to action.” Informed by experienced survivors, student researchers, frontline workers, policy experts and university administrators working to address and prevent gender-based violence at post-secondary institutions and beyond we are collaboratively working towards change.

In 2020, the Courage to Act team, which includes staff, Working Group and Community of Practice members, worked collaboratively to develop key tools, toolkits and opportunities to collaborate, learn and grow. The Annual Report is meant to provide you with an easy view of the tremendous work taking place within the project and across the country.

It takes great courage to act. We are honoured to work with 150 individuals, organizations and institutions across Canada to cultivate new ideas, protocols and possibilities for a safer campus for all. The work of Courage to Act is a huge undertaking by many of us, and we are committed to working together to create change and further this important work in 2021.
