Green Dot

The Green Dot Bystander Intervention at UU will form part of a strategic response to the issues of sexual misconduct and gender based violence among student populations.

Sexual Consent

Consent is OMFG- an ongoing, mutual, and freely-given agreement to take part in sexual activity. It applies to all relationships, all genders, and all sexualities.

To give consent or to get consent from someone else might seem straightforward, but the complexity of relationships and sexual encounters at university can create uncertainty.
