PreventEd delivers education programmes to young people in secondary schools, alternative education centres, teen parent units, residential spaces and youth justice centres in the greater Auckland area. We believe that education is the best strategy to prevent sexual violence in our communities.
BodySafe Tiaki Tinana, is an interactive secondary school programme that promotes healthy relationships by having open and supportive conversations about respectful relationships, sex and consent.
The programme consists of four modules concentrating on consent, respect, support and active by-standing.
BodySafe is one of the leading prevention programmes in Aotearoa New Zealand
BodySafe programme was examined by Massey University, having outstanding evaluations, was effective, valued by students, and of high quality.
Now, BodySafe is now delivered across mainstream schools in Auckland and within multiple alternative education centres, teen parenting units and youth justice facilities. Bodysafe continues to grow thanks to the huge ongoing support from the schools and centres we work in.
consent
When making a decision to do something with someone else, we should always seek consent. When people are deciding to do sexual acts together, it’s important that everyone involved is keen on what’s happening.
respect
There are different types of relationships with different people. Respect can look very different in all these relationships and there are various ways in which people show respect in their relationships.
support
There are a range of feelings and issues that can come up if someone has had an unwanted sexual experience. Everyone deserves to get the support they need to heal from these experiences.
Upstanding
Knowing how to safely intervene if you see something happening which may cause harm to someone else.
