SAFER SPACES POLICY
We ask that every person who accesses UVic Pride’s spaces (including our events) be familiar with our Anti-Racism and Anti-Oppression, Anti-Stigma, and Safer Spaces Policies.
We strive to make UVic Pride spaces safer for all marganalized communities, and to keep our spaces free of all forms of oppression. An intentionally safer space is created when participants work towards safety for all people and actively challenge all forms of oppression. We define safety as freedom from oppression as outlined in the Collective’s Anti-Oppression and Anti-Racism policy, while recognizing that systemic oppression and power structures are pervasive in all spaces. We recognize that everyone enters our spaces holds different forms and amounts of understandings and knowledges, and we assume the best intent whenever possible. We encourage learning, but we do prioritize safety. For these reasons, anyone who cannot commit to honour our Anti-Racism and Anti-Oppression, Anti-Stigma, and Safer Spaces Policies will be asked to leave.
To find our policies, please visit the following link:http://uvicpride.ca/about/
If you have trouble accessing the documents, please email pride@uvic.ca
There will be 2 Safer Spaces Volunteers on site to address any instances of oppressive behaviour, or behaviour that violates our anti-oppressive policy, intentional or unintentional. They will be made visible by purple arm bands.
