The Aunties ‘Support Talk’ training tackles gender-based violence and discrimination in the industry
The Aunties has teamed up with Women’s Health Victoria (WHV), to launch an online training program to tackle gender-based violence and discrimination within the advertising sector.
Australia’s largest mentoring movement, The Aunties has developed the training based on feedback from other programs that mentees often felt more at ease confiding in their mentors than in managers, friends, or family.
Moreover, a recent Create Space survey highlighted that one in four women in the industry experienced bullying, undermining, or harassment at work over the past year.
The ‘Support Talk’ program is an online, video-based training that is available for free for the next three months but will become mandatory for all mentors in future Aunties programs.
