The Moose Hide Campaign began as a British Columbia-born Indigenous-led grassroots movement to engage men and boys in ending violence towards women and children. It has since grown into a nationwide movement of Indigenous and non-Indigenous people. All ages, genders and backgrounds are invited to take part in Moose Hide Campaign activities.

The workshop included information about the Moose Hide Campaign and resources for participants.

 

All Algonquin College students were invited to participate in a workshop to develop an awareness of how gender-based violence against Indigenous women and girls impacts everyone and to learn how to locate and write an effective letter advocating to their Member of Parliament.

 

Project Lighthouse employees were also in attendance. Project Lighthouse aims to shine a light on the topic of sexual violence and help you navigate healthy sexual relationships. Through compassion, education and awareness, this initiative aims to reduce sexual violence at Algonquin College and support survivors of sexual violence.
