This week Yaadein sits down with Equality Unit case workers Larona and Qaqamba to unpack the concept of consent. As case workers for the Equality Unit both Larona and Qaqamba have dealt with countless scenarios in which a students consent has been violated and/or the student has been harassed. Yaadein therefore taps into their professional and experiential knowledge in order to understand exactly what consent is. How can consent be communicated? When do we know we have had our boundaries crossed? When is it "that deep" enough for us to report it. And, who do we report it too?

Sometimes we think, our boundaries are fluid, and the violation of these boundaries isn't a major issue. Is an unsolicited photo really that serious? Listen and find out.

An important aspect of this episode was letting our students know that, there is somewhere you can go to if something ever happens to you. If you feel something happened to you that you did not consent to or feel as if you're being harassed or even if you simply want to talk to someone, the Equality Unit is there for you.
