TDP x OBOV: Bystander Intervention in Professional Environments

TDP brings you a collaboration with Our Bodies, Our Voice UvA for this special career week event! This is a slight modification on OBOV’s standard Bystander Intervention workshop, including time for you to discuss actual or potential scenarios of sexual harassment in the workplace or in academic settings.

Bystander Intervention is recognizing a potentially harmful situation or interaction and choosing to respond in a way that could positively influence the outcome. We will be analyzing and discussing the different methods of intervening and applying them to real life situations, which are chosen by the participants themselves. It’s going to be a great opportunity to practice and learn from each other! ⁠’

Core topics of this workshop include:
- What Bystander Intervention is and the different methods of intervening
- Situations in which these methods of intervening could be helpful
- Strengthening assertiveness in both personal and external experiences
- Available help-seeking options and information
