Intervention protocol

If someone is bothering you, you're not alone.

If you or someone close to you is experiencing sexual or social misconduct, don't keep it silent. There are ways to act, and here is our proposal for a concrete, effective and easily shareable method.

Observe. Identify. Report.

What is the #123BREAK protocol?

Everyone has a right to their bubble.

The rule of three, it's simple

  • 3 X intrusive behaviours.
  • 3 X observations.
  • 3 X actions to take:
  1. 1
    ObserveAn intrusive behaviour that bothers someone and keeps happening.
  2. 2
    IdentifyRemember three distinctive signs to clearly identify the disruptive person without risk of error.
  3. 3
    ReportReport these 3 signs to the staff. The team checks and acts.

The witness doesn't play hero.They report, the team acts.

Blatant misconduct?
Report immediately. Don't wait for three times.
Don't confront anyone, that's not your job.

Simulated text conversation

But what did I do?

Even if it's not what you thought or wanted, you didn't respect the guidelines, and the community will ask you to take a little break to go read the site and think about it.

We'll be happy to welcome you back next time if you share our values, because "That's how we do things here!"

That's it.

We'll be glad to see you again, with the right attitude ;)

Have a good week
