Working with young people to promote healthy & respectful relationships.

We facilitate open & supportive conversations about respectful relationships, sex and consent.

BodySafe Tiaki Tinana is an interactive secondary school programme that promotes healthy relationships by having open and supportive conversations about respectful relationships, sex and consent.  

We deliver this programme to upwards of 5,000 young people every year, across secondary schools alternative education centres, and teen parent units in Tāmaki Makaurau. 

By working with rangatahi to promote healthy and respectful relationships we can reduce rates of sexual violence in Aotearoa New Zealand.
