Include sexual assault mitigation in the curriculum, save women from violence

Secondary schools are the prime environment to undo the normalisation of violence against women. Some schools host sexual assault awareness weeks but encourage women to 'be careful' rather than teaching others to stop assault. For example, women are taught not to walk alone at night, not to leave drinks unattended at a party. This does not stop the violence! 97% of women have experienced sexual assault or harassment. This must be stopped. We deserve safety, to do nothing is to be complicit.
