How We Live Matters: What is required to create a cultural
shift away from misogyny, sexism and
sexualized violence?

The Dalhousie Dentistry Gentlemen’s Facebook page

to respond to sexualized violence. Panelists from
Halifax universities will discuss underlying systemic
causes of this culture of gender-based violence and
proactive approaches to change.
