Sexual Assault Prevention And Community Equity
The SPACE
Toolkit is a compilation of resources, suggestions, and ideas for colleges and universities to examine and address power imbalances in the physical spaces on their campuses. Practical,
helpful, and grounded in a broad commitment to equity, the SPACE Toolkit reaffirms that assault is about power and uses this truth to drive change.

In 2020, Columbia professor Jennifer S. Hirsch and Princeton Professor Shamus Khan published
Sexual Citizens: A Landmark Study of Sex, Power, and Assault on Campus (an NPR Best Book of 2020), which laid out an expansive, empirically-grounded vision for campus sexual assault prevention. The groundbreaking work put forth powerful concepts to help
explain the forces in young people’s sexual lives: sexual projects (the various motives college students have for pursuing sex), sexual citizenship (the possession of one’s sexual agency, and the respect for another’s), and sexual geographies (the physical
and social landscapes that shape the power dynamics and contexts of sex). The authors approach sexual assault as a public health matter and frame it within a broader understanding of how sex is organized and what it means to young people in college.
