Toolkit

V-Day’s legacy on college campuses has contributed to what is now a widespread dialogue about reforming sexual assault policies on college campuses. For over 25 years, activists have highlighted violence against women and girls, in all its forms, in communities around the world. Now, as part of One Billion Rising, it is time for those of you at colleges and universities to turn your attention inward and examine and expose campus injustices with our Campus Rising campaign.
Our Campus Rising Toolkit is filled with information and resources to help you join this student-driven movement to revamp sexual assault policy on college campuses. Together, we can end the prevalence of on-campus sexual assault and date-rape, as well as administrations’ failure to properly prevent or adequately respond to the needs of college survivors.
Rise In Solidarity at YOUR College on (or around) 14 February, and devote your school year to bringing about tangible change on your campus!
