Educator Workshops
We equip teachers with the tools to promote respectful relationships in their classrooms, empowering their students to have safe and consensual experiences, if and when they choose to.
From emerging technologies, such as generative AI and virtual companions, to ongoing issues, such as misogynistic and sexist behaviour in the classroom, many educators report feeling ill-equipped to support their students navigate the rapidly changing social landscape of young people.
The current resources offered to teaching staff regarding these concerns are inadequate. Additionally, the consent education mandated in the Australian curriculum does not go far enough. Consequently, many school communities have expressed an interest in more relevant and practical information.
Working from an evidence based approach, inyourskin® advocates for healthy and consenting relationships, both online and offline, and provides schools with workshops for teachers that align with wellbeing initiatives.
