Community Centre for Integrated Development

Let’s be clear: What someone wears is never an invitation for violence.
R**e is not caused by clothing.
It is caused by choices, by perpetrators.
We must challenge harmful narratives and build a culture of accountability.
Stop the blame. Start the truth.

Communication is the heartbeat of every healthy relationship. Understanding and respecting boundaries doesn't just prevent harm, it strengthens the bond between partners and promotes a culture of trust.

A wedding ring does not replace a "Yes." Whether you’ve been together for one day or twenty years, consent is required every single time. Respect is the foundation of any healthy partnership.

Today, the Community Centre for Integrated Development (CCID) visited Lumei Christie Primary School to raise awareness on sexual assault among pupils.

The session focused on helping children understand what sexual assault is, the importance of consent, and the age at which consent is legally recognized. Pupils were also encouraged to identify trusted adults, such as parents, guardians, and teachers, as safe persons they can speak to if they ever feel uncomfortable, harassed, or harmed.

A key message shared was that they should never be afraid or ashamed to speak up. Reporting abuse is a brave and important step toward staying safe.

Through this engagement, CCID continues its commitment to educating young people, preventing abuse, and building a culture where every child feels protected and heard.

A relationship is not a contract for permanent access. Relationship status does not equal consent. Whether it’s the first date or the tenth year, consent is required every single time. No exceptions. No excuses.
