Explicit sexual imagery is now easily accessed, created and shared.
For young people, it is almost impossible to avoid.
Exploring issues not currently covered in sex education in schools, exploring how young people are influenced by explicit sexual imagery and the implications for their capacity to negotiate consent, mutual respect and gender equality.
This training is suitable for teachers, youth workers, nurses, psychologists and others involved in education, health promotion, violence prevention, support or counselling with young people, or in policy development in related areas.

She is also the author of ‘In The Picture’ – a whole school resource to assist secondary schools to address the influence of explicit sexual imagery.
