Throughout the Title IX and WAVA training, I have learned a lot about rights, responsibilities, and protections related to gender equity, sexual harassment, and violence prevention, especially in educational and institutional settings. Understanding these laws empowers us to recognize violations, advocate for ourself or others, and contribute to a safer, more respectful environment. We can apply this knowledge by knowing our rights, recognizing red flags, utilizing available resources, supporting others, practicing consent and respect and getting involved following protocols based on our roles in the institution.
