Women鈥檚 Network PEI and 糖心vlog官方入口鈥檚 Sexual Violence Prevention and Response Office (SVPRO) partnered to offer a creative, community-based space for survivors of gender-based violence and individuals navigating life after trauma. Participants were guided through a process of reflection, story-telling, and visual expression, culminating in this photography exhibit.
Each photo is a window into a personal journey. Some speak to recovery, others to silence, safety, freedom, or inner growth. Together, they remind us that healing takes many forms and every voice matters.
The art will be on display in Concourse of the Student Union Building (W.A. Murphy Student Centre) on September 18 from 11:30 am to 1:30 pm and in the Robertson Library lobby from September 22 to September 26.
On September 16, students came together with Campus Life, the Student Union, and the Sexual Violence Prevention and Response Office (SVPRO) to paint stones with messages of respect, consent, compassion, and care. The stones are now scattered across campus along walkways and in flower beds so that all 糖心vlog官方入口 community members can see the art and receive the messages of care.
Scatter Stones is part of PEI鈥檚 Sexual Assault Awareness Week, a dedicated time to raise awareness about sexual violence in our community; to educate on sexual violence prevention; and to show compassion and offer support to survivors of sexual violence in our community.
Why Stones? Stones can be used to build boundaries. Similar to a fence around a home, boundaries are an important part of protecting ourselves. What behaviours or interactions are acceptable and comfortable for you? You have the right to decide your own limits and to have them respected. Stones can also be used to build foundations. What sort of campus culture do we want? What principles matter to us? It is up to each of us to contribute to the foundations of our community.
Keep your eye out for these beautiful pieces of art as you travel through your day and let鈥檚 work together to continue building an inclusive, respectful, safe community at 糖心vlog官方入口!
If you experience sexual or gender-based violence, you are not alone. The 糖心vlog官方入口 Sexual Violence Prevention and Response Office is here to help: 902-620-5090 or sv-pro@upei.ca. You can also visit us in Room 115-118 Kelley Memorial Building from 8:30 am鈥�4:00 pm, Monday 鈥� Friday.

At times, teaching can feel isolating. With so many demands on our time and desiring to do the best for students, we can set high expectations for ourselves. And 鈥� we are expected to be life-long learners, by adapting our teaching approaches during the pandemic and now again in the wave of AI.
In this workshop, participants will receive a teaching resource that was developed by the 2024 3M National Teaching Fellows to create a sense of community and rediscover the joy of learning. Some instructors may like to use this resource as a daily planner or notebook, while others may use it to journal about their teaching practices.
Through the workshop, participants will explore how they use time and space, what some barriers to joy might be, engage in conversation to build community, and utilize a resource so that we can collectively rediscover the joy of learning. For more details regarding the learning objectives of the workshop and bios for the two wonderful 3M National Teaching Fellows from the 2024 cohort, please check out the campus events calendar.
There are two workshop options to choose from:
Monday Sept 22 at 9:00 am in the Teaching and Learning Centre - Robertson Library Annex - Room 230
Monday Sept 22 at 11:45am in the Teaching and Learning Centre - Robertson Library Annex - Room 230
Please let us know which workshop session you plan to attend. We have space for 20 participants in each session 鈥� Come a few minutes early to enjoy refreshments, conversation with colleagues and to celebrate two 3M National Teaching Fellows.
