Respect at Uni Week: She Is Not Your Rehab
Proudly brought to you by
We are excited to announce that Matt Brown from She Is Not Your Rehab will be delivering a keynote address for Respect at Uni Week.
Taimalelagi Mataio Faafetai (Matt) Brown, is a New Zealand born Samoan author and renowned communicator who works to eradicate domestic violence by supporting those who perpetrate violence, to heal. A survivor of family violence and childhood sexual abuse himself, he originally started his domestic violence advocacy work by sharing his story with the men who frequented his busy barbershops as a way to foster vulnerability, healing, and connection. Matt believes his true calling lies in his work to redefine societies view of masculinity and to help end the cycle of domestic violence plaguing families all over the world.
Matt and Sarah Brown, together founded She Is Not Your Rehab and launched the concept in Matt’s 2019 TEDx talk; The Barbershop where men go to heal.
This event is part of Respect at Uni Week, an initiative from the Victorian Tertiary Primary Prevention Network. All universities in Western Australia are joining forces to promote the importance of respect, equality and inclusion on our campuses and online spaces.
