Walk-A-Mile In Her Shoes

Walk-A-Mile is an International men's march to stop rape, sexual assault & gender violence. We ask men to walk in women's high-heeled shoes to actively confront gender stereotypes and expectations. In this space of playful confrontation and openness, it's possible to reveal and consider many of the underlying causes of men's sexualized violence with less defensiveness and denial. It's an engaging event that gets the community talking about sex and gender biases, gender identity, gender relations, and men's sexualized violence. 

For Heidelberg's event, participants will walk around Campus Center Lawn going from booth to booth and learning about the different effects of gender-based violence.
