Consent, kids, and culture

Without consent there is no civilized society. Without consent there is no rule of law. Today, most of the world is not completely sure what consent really means. Consent is not just about sexual consent. We will talk about what consent really is and how it interplays in our day-to-day lives.

Rosalia Rivera is a passionate consent educator, sexual literacy advocate, speaker, change agent, and survivor turned thriver. She is the host of AboutCONSENT™, a podcast for survivors and those who support survivors.

Rosalia is also the founder of CONSENTparenting™, an online platform for survivor parents to learn how to protect their families from abuse. And she is soon launching CONSENTwear™, a clothing brand for kids, teens and adults to create consent culture.

This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
