Restorative Sex Education

How can we make sex education more effective and engaging using restorative approaches? Dr Clara Wisenfeld Paine will share with us her research on the implementation of restorative approaches into sex education in schools and the potential that this has for preventing harmful sexual behaviours (i.e. sexual behaviours expressed by individuals under the age of eighteen which are harmful or abusive).

Clara will offer an overview of the broader context of her doctoral research which involved focus groups, interviews, and classroom observations involving over 200 research participants. She will also present an analysis of the data which showcases how restorative sex education can help students to make healthy, safe, empowered, and informed choices, while also having the skills necessary for effectively and safely identifying and responding to incidents of harmful sexual behaviour.

Finally, Clara will offer practical examples of ways in which schools can implement restorative approaches into sex education and will share with us her implementation model for future practice.

The event will end with time for questions and discussion.
