Sexual violence is vastly underreported, only 6% of cases in 2019 were reported. Many survivors fear not being believed or facing victim-blaming.

Alcohol and consent don’t mix. If someone is too intoxicated to be fully aware, they cannot give consent. Without consent, it’s sexual violence. Being drunk is never an excuse, and the law won’t accept it as a defence.
Only a sober ‘yes’ means yes.

Consent is more than just "yes", it must be clear, willing & enthusiastic. If someone is pressured, scared, intoxicated, asleep, or in a power imbalance, there is NO consent. ❌
Respect, trust & care build healthy relationships, not pressure or fear.

Alcohol may be common in campus life, but it can blur boundaries and amplify risks.
It's not the cause, but often a factor in sexual violence. ⚠
#DrinkSmartTIPS: Watch out for each other, respect limits, and it's always okay to say "no." ✅

Alcohol can impair judgment; a 'yes' while drinking is NOT consent. Real consent requires clarity and sobriety. ⚠️
#DrinkSmartTIPS Recognize consent, communicate openly, respect boundaries, and be cautious with alcohol.
