Make no doubt about sexual consent

Sexual consent is when people freely and voluntarily agree to engage in sexual activity. 

The Make No Doubt campaign aims to teach you what consent looks like, how to give consent, and what to do if someone doesn't take no for an answer. Watch videos, read helpful tips and understand the law so that you can make an informed decision about having sex.
