Southern Cross Institute (SCI) was pleased to host the Gender-Based Violence and Sexual Harm Prevention – Consent & Intoxication session on Wednesday, 23 September 2026, at the SCI Macquarie Street Campus.

Delivered by Consent Labs, the session provided students with important information and practical insights relating to consent, intoxication, respectful relationships and the prevention of sexual harm.

The session supported students in developing their understanding of consent and respectful behaviour, while encouraging greater awareness of personal safety, wellbeing and the importance of seeking support when needed.

Student safety and wellbeing are important elements of the SCI student experience.
