Sexual harm means any unwanted or unwelcome sexual behaviour or any sexual activity that occurs without free and informed consent.
Sexual harm and consent are further defined in the Sexual Harm Prevention and Response Policy (refer Definitions).
People committing acts of sexual harm often use tactics to make a person feel responsible or complicit. It is never the responsibility of the person who has had the act committed against them. But it can be frightening to have the courage to reach out for help.
Some forms of sexual harm (for example, sexual assault, image-based abuse and stalking) are a crime.
