Research suggests that young people trivialise and justify violence against women and girls, view some forms of sexual harassment as normal, and excuse rape.
A report by the National Education Union found that teachers feel that the most effective way to address gendered violence in schools is by increasing awareness and education. Press Red will be delivering PSHE lessons, the Brave mentoring programme, and drama workshops addressing gendered violence.
