Ending sexual violence and stigmatisation in Australian tertiary learning communities.
The STOP Campaign was founded in 2018 and formally ceased operation in 2025. We were a grassroots not-for-profit dedicated to empowering young people to create communities that are sex positive and free from sexual violence and stigma. We worked in universities and tertiary learning communities primarily in the ACT, but we also had volunteers across Australia!
We were here to have open and honest conversations about sexual violence and wellbeing, to empower victim-survivors of sexual violence, and to encourage young people to build safe and inclusive tertiary learning communities that are free from sexual violence.
Our Resource Hub
These resources were created by, and for, victim-survivors of sexual violence and all those who support them. They align with STOP’s values of integrity, respect, passion and intersectionality.
Even though STOP has closed its doors, we want members of our community to access and use our work to navigate and address issues related to gendered violence. Feel free to download and use the resources in this Resource Hub to guide, inform and inspire you to work towards communities that are free from sexual violence and stigmatisation.

College Program
The College Program was a series of education and advocacy workshops for tertiary students in residential halls which aimed to prevent sexual violence and promote sexual wellbeing.
#IDeserveSafety
The #IDeserveSafety Campaign called on the Federal Government to establish an independent national oversight mechanism to hold universities accountable for failing to protect students from sexual violence.
