Apply now for the Sexism Free Night EU training sessions. The three training courses are designed for professionals in the nightlife sector across Europe—including nightlife professionals, festival organizers, and drug prevention specialists—and aim to build the skills needed to prevent and respond to sexual violence in nightlife settings. Participants in these training sessions can play a role as future leaders in promoting a safer and more equitable environment, as well as pass on the knowledge they’ve gained to other staff members through training.

The training covers topics such as sexual violence in nightlife, bystander intervention, and intersectionality in nightlife.

The topics are covered through group work and reflection on experience, meaning that the training is fully interactive and is tailored specifically to each target group, so active participation is required.
