Royal Roads University members acknowledge that we learn, work, and live on the traditional lands of the Xwsepsum (Esquimalt) and Lkwungen (Songhees) ancestors and families who have lived here for thousands of years.
The creation of these videos occurred on the territories of the sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), səl’ilwətaɁɬ (Tsleil-Waututh), and xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musquem) Nations, whose relationship to these lands is on-going today.
Many of us benefit from unearned power and privilege due to the invasion of the lands upon which we live, love, work, and play. Sexual violence is intrinsically connected to colonization. We strive to challenge these systems of violence, and, humbly commit to this as a lifelong practice.
Royal Roads University is grateful to the the Research Universities Council of BC and our five partner universities who worked together to create these educational resources to combat sexual violence in our communities.
