Men's Sexual Assault Prevention Programming: Where Have We Been, Where Are

The last twenty years has seen increasing attention to men's role in
preventing sexual assault, with the development of workshops and media
focused on men as "part of the solution." This audioconference reviews men's
programming efforts, past developments and successes, and addresses future
challenges and directions. Topics include: understanding men's role in
prevention, best practices in men's programming, theoretical models, the
relation of our work with men to work with women, and social
marketing/social norms marketing media. The audioconference will end by
reviewing men's programs and media campaigns from other countries to provide
an international context for our work in North America. Q&A opportunities

various models for mandating programming, providing positive incentives, and
delivering programming on high-risk issues such as drug use, problem
drinking, sexual assault, etc. through curricular, co-curricular,
technology-based and extra-curricular models. He will then share his
innovative model for a four-year educational strategy for high-risk student
health and safety programming. This approach helps colleges to identify key
areas of educational need, and plan a coordinated, centralized year-by-year
educational initiative that is thematic, consistent, progressive and
developmental. Q&A will follow.
