Consent is an integral part of good, healthy, and safe sex. But beyond the basics of a ‘yes’ or a ‘no’, there are many shades of grey which can be confusing to grasp.

It focuses on all things consent: what it is, how you get it, what happens when you don’t get consent and how to help survivors of sexual violence.
