SV & GBV Awareness Society Award

What is the award? 

The SV (sexual violence) & GBV (gender-based violence) Awareness Award was created to ensure that every society has the resources needed to look after their members.

There are three tiers of the award, each with different eligibility requirements. The award asks committee members to complete GBV First Responder Training, and 'Don't be a Bystander' training. Every committee member that completes the training will be accredited for it, and each society shall receive a corresponding ribbon as they complete each tier of the award.

You must email your VP Communities to notify the Union that your society has completed the training. 

How can my society participate in the training?

• You can complete the Bystander Training in your own time.
• First Responder Training is offered throughout the academic year. Keep a look out for emails from your VP Communities regarding training dates. Once sign up forms are sent out, ensure your register your committee. 

Each time a member completes the Bystander Training, they should notify the VP Communities by filling out out the Bystander Training Completion Form:
