Gender, Consent & Relationships

Introduction

Healthy relationships begin with understanding.

Of ourselves, of others, and of the boundaries that keep everyone safe and respected. Gender, Consent & Relationships is about learning what equality looks like in everyday connections, and how respect forms the foundation of love, trust, and friendship.


For too long, society has taught young people confusing or unequal messages about gender and power — about who leads, who follows, and whose comfort matters most. Equality in relationships starts when we unlearn those patterns and replace them with honesty, empathy, and communication.


Consent is a simple word with a powerful meaning. It’s not just about saying “yes” or “no.” It’s about respect — giving each person the right to make their own choices about their body, their feelings, and their comfort. True consent is clear, confident, and mutual. It can be withdrawn at any time, and it should always be met with understanding.


Relationships — whether romantic, friendly, or online — grow strongest when built on equality. That means listening, respecting boundaries, and valuing the other person’s thoughts and emotions as much as your own.


Here, we help young people explore how gender expectations, social pressures, and communication shape the way we connect. It’s a space for learning, for reflection, and for discovering what real respect feels like.


Because equality in relationships doesn’t just build connection — it builds a kinder, safer world for everyone.
