Sexual Assault: Survivor Support and Social Change - a podcast by Lexi Sylver

Sexual assault affects everyone, whether you are a survivor or know someone else who has survived sexual assault. In this key episode, Lexi talks with Samantha Heuwagen about the comprehensive definitions of sexual assault and consent, and understanding our current social framework and culture and their role in the power dynamics that underlie sexual assault, including why people may choose not to report incidences when they happen to them. Samantha and Lexi also cover how survivors can obtain support, and how loved ones of survivors can provide support to them in times of need. They also explore ways in which people can educate each other about consent and how to be role models for others in terms of behavior, respect and treatment of others and their boundaries, and how this can go a long way in changing stigmas about those who report sexual assault, as well as to prevent these incidences from happening in the first place.
