It’s time we talked is a violence prevention initiative focused on preventing pornography’s harms to children and young people. It’s time we talked has a wide range of information, resources and training to support parents, schools, and other professionals who work with children, young people and their families to understand and address the influence of pornography.

This guide is a resource for teachers and other school staff who work with young people in secondary schools. Its purpose is to help schools understand the harmful impacts of the manosphere, including the key beliefs and links to violence, how boys and young men are recruited into the manosphere and the role of social media.

By understanding the manosphere, schools can support young people to develop skills to navigate online platforms, social media and content creators and make informed choices about what they engage with and how.

The resources in this hub can be used to help develop a whole-of-community approach to online safety, support classroom learning, access professional development, respond to online incidents, and more.

There are also new downloadable resources specially created to help you share important online safety messages with your school community.

This hub has been created by eSafety in collaboration with education organisations across Australia, through our National Online Safety Education Council.
