I was quickly put at ease and had a really fun and valuable day\, and learnt some really useful information. The presenters were excellent. I highly recommend it to anyone in the music and arts field whether a teacher or performer or director” \nProfessional Respect Training Workshop – Facilitator Biographies \n  \nMelanie Calvesbert (she/they) \nMel was born\, grew up and lives in Te Whanganui a Tara (Wellington). She is Pākehā and in October 2022\, made the leap to self-employment. The primary focus of her work is working alongside communities and organisations as they seek to both respond well and prevent all forms of sexual harm including sexual harassment in workplaces and child sexual abuse. \nImmediately prior to self-employment life\, Mel worked at the New Zealand Defence Force (NZDF). Initially this was as one of their small team of regionally based Sexual Assault Prevention and Response Advisors (SAPRAs) and then as the Manager for the SAPRAs. \nPrior to the NZDF Mel worked for the most part in NGOs who have a focus on the response to sexual harm\, including WellStop and the Wellington Sexual Abuse HELP Foundation. \nShe enjoys being able to take prior learning and adapt that in order to be able to support  organisations which have taken on the challenge of creating safer and respectful environments. \n  \nRachel Harrison (she/they) \nRachel Harrison comes from the Coromandel Peninsula and currently lives in Te Whanganui a Tara (Wellington) and works with organisations and communities across Aotearoa to help prevent sexual harassment\, sexual violence\, domestic violence and child abuse. \nRachel believes that harassment\, violence and abuse are preventable and that the best solutions are tailored to each specific community and workplace\, making use of their strengths and minimising specific risk factors. \nRachel started at Auckland Rape Crisis in the 1990’s\, and since then has worked at Netsafe\, the Hauraki Family Violence Network and Child Abuse Prevention Services Hauraki. She is now self-employed and works with a range of public and private sector organisations including the New Zealand Defence Force\, New Zealand Rugby\, the screen sector\, performance sector and music community as they work toward making their communities safe and free from harassment and abuse. \n
