Upcoming Partners in Prevention network meeting:

Violence Prevention and Sexual Health

2 nd December 2008, 1.30-4.30pm

Hayden Raysmith Room (Fourth Floor), Ross House

247 Flinders Lane, Melbourne

Our next network meeting offers an opportunity to discuss the relationship between violence prevention and sexual health education in schools. Where do the two topics diverge? What are the benefits of integrating them? Is integration with existing sexual health curriculum the best way forward for gender-based violence prevention?

Presentations from:

  • Lucy Forwood, Women's Health West ‘Girls talk, Guys talk'
  • Shelley Walker, Knox Community Health, Youth ‘KISS' research project
