Streaming For Survivors 2024 is right around the corner! From March 23-30, 2024, content creators, gamers, artists, TTRPG players, musicians, streamers, and podcasters will come together with a goal of raising $80,000 for survivors of sexualized violence during Salal Sexual Violence Support Centre’s fourth annual Streaming For Survivors event!
All week long, participants will use their platforms to inspire their followers and communities to donate to survivors and fund Salal‘s life-saving sexual violence support services.
Sexualized violence and sexual misconduct plague online communities. By participating in Streaming for Survivors you are not only supporting the more than 500 survivors currently accessing Salal‘s programs and services, but committing to creating safer digital spaces for people of all genders.
This year we’ll be presenting five fun and thought-provoking virtual panels covering a wide variety of hot topics you’re not gonna wanna miss!! We got a little something for everyone so make sure you have our Twitch handle on lock so you can be part of the conversation!
All panels will be free to access on our Twitch channel, and will be uploaded to our YouTube channel post-event!

Ready to welcome joy as a tool towards healing?
In this panel we’re exploring the transformative power of joy in healing ! Discover the significance of both individual and collective joy in the healing journey and why it’s important. Our panelists will challenge the narrow association of catharsis with anger or sadness to welcome the cathartic nature of joy.
Join us as we reimagine healing beyond the notion of brokenness, embracing joy as an integral part of the journey.
We’re gonna get real about reality television!
Whether its for the escapism or thriving on other people’s drama we’ll be unpacking the appeal (and the dark side) of reality TV! What draws individuals to participate in these shows and are they truly consenting to the storytelling created by producers for the sake of ratings? Explore the unsettling acceptance of panopticism as we watch real people share intimate moments on shows like Love Island, Love is Blind, and The Bachelor and how this blurs the lines of privacy, altering our perception of personal boundaries.
