Bystander Intervention Training – Free!

January 30, 2024 @ 2:00 pm - 3:30 pm

Rowing BC is partnering with viaSport and Right to Be to deliver Bystander Training!

From Right to Be: “We all have a responsibility to do something when we see maltreatment happening, but too often we freeze. We don’t know what to do. Bystander Intervention gives us tools to intervene without compromising our own safety.

When we intervene, we don’t just reduce trauma for the person being harmed. We also start to chip away at the culture that allows maltreatment to be so prevalent. Alone we can’t shift the culture – but together – our actions matter.

In this training, our goal is to give participants the tools to intervene the next time they witness harmful behaviour in the sports community. We will equip you with the right information on how to be an effective bystander in the midst of maltreatment in sports spaces using our proven 5Ds methodology, our five strategies for intervention. Then we will practice so you leave our training feeling more prepared to successfully and safely intervene.”
