Be A Better Human is a student-led campaign focused around consent, sexual harassment and sexual assault, bystander education, respectful relationships and reporting and support options for University students.
This award-winning initiative was created with a group of Flinders students from the ground up, to reflect their campus culture and what they believe everyone needs to appreciate – consent, respect and empathy. The campaign is called Be a Better Human, because it’s not just about what we shouldn’t do; it’s about self-improvement for everyone. And when we say ‘everyone’, we really do mean everyone. We’re encouraging everyone who is part of a campus community to take a moment and consider how we can ‘better’ our behaviour. Let’s figure out how we can all be better humans.
SEN member FUSA, with the support of Flinders University, have agreed to waive copyright over the campaign material and content to ensure they are freely available to student organisations across Australia, and internationally, and help drive national action against rape culture.
The campaign is built around a comprehensive toolkit to empower students to own their behaviour and shape their community into one that is safe, respectful and inclusive.
The kit includes a handbook which discusses affirmative consent – what it means, how to identify it and what to do if there’s no consent – be it in real life or in the digital realm. Campaign material also includes videos, coasters, T-shirts, charity undies and more.
