Festif & Safe Toolkit
As part of the Festif & Safe: For safe party spaces, the roundtable and its partners have developed a comprehensive toolkit for festival and event organizers across the region.
Launched in 2023, the initiative aims to raise public awareness, strengthen the sense of safety among festivalgoers, and help prevent sexual violence and drink tampering. Festivals and large public events can present circumstances that increase the risk of these incidents, making prevention and preparedness essential.
This toolkit is designed to guide and support organizers in implementing effective safety measures at their events. Most resources are available in both French and English. The only exception is the pre-recorded training session. If you would like to receive an English version, please contact us—we can provide the training with English subtitles.
If you have any questions or require additional information, please contact our Development Officer, Charlotte Agostini.
Self-Assessment Guide
The Self-Assessment Guide will help you determine which measures we recommend you put in place, depending on the type of event you are organising.
Presentation and Guide
This presentation and guide provide an overview of the Festif & Safe project and explain the different stages involved in implementing its measures.
Best Practices
The Best Practices section highlights concrete, positive measures implemented by festivals across the region. These initiatives are designed to strengthen prevention efforts and demonstrate a clear commitment to creating safer environments and preventing sexual assault.
Visuals
The Festif & Safe visuals are designed to help you raise awareness and promote prevention both at your event and online, including on social media and your website.
Show your colours and make your commitment clear: sexual assault is not tolerated here.
Contact Directory
The Contact Directory provides the phone numbers and email addresses of organizations offering first aid services in your region. These contacts can help you arrange for qualified first aid personnel to be present at your event.
Protocol
The Protocol is designed to guide your organization, as well as volunteers, security personnel, medical staff, and response teams, in the event of an incident.
It provides clear guidance on how to respond to different situations and helps identify the roles and responsibilities of those involved in the response.
Training
This 23-minute pre-recorded training session is an essential resource for developing a better understanding of sexual assault and accidental intoxication, while providing practical strategies for responding appropriately.
The training is intended for festival organizers and volunteers and will help them feel better prepared to recognize situations of concern and respond effectively.
