DESCRIPTION:What does consent mean to university students? How is it percei
 ved and practiced? Who is most likely to seek consent before and during se
 xual activity? What are the greatest barriers to creating a culture of con
 sent? How can everyone be involved in a culture of consent so that harmful
  situations are identified and prevented before it's too late?\n\nUndersta
 nding how consent is perceived\, communicated\, interpreted\, and acknowle
 dged is a necessary first step toward proactive measures that prevent sexu
 al harassment and assault. This is a priority area for campuses world-wide
 . Yet\, there is a paucity of data on the understanding and experience of 
 consent amongst Canadian postsecondary students and serious disagreement a
 bout what\, exactly\, consent means and how it can be asked for and grante
 d.\n\nThe University of Calgary’s Women’s Studies Program and Women’s Reso
 urces Center held a symposium that gathered policy makers\, educators\, me
 dia and sexuality scholars\, nurses\, and community organizations to speak
  about issues around consent culture. The main organizers\, Jenny Godley a
 nd Rebecca Sullivan\, led the event with a team of volunteers. \n\nTwo of 
 the IMPACTS Project research assistants\, Chloe Garcia and Alastair Hibber
 d\, attended the conference. PhD candidate Chloe presented her research in
  a session titled\, “ Rape Culture\, Girls and Vlogging: How are Young Fem
 ale Vloggers Shifting the Discourse Around Sexual Consent”.\n\nVisit the w
