Dr. Rachael Burgin is a Lecturer in Law at Swinburne University in Australia. Her work focuses on consent law and affirmative consent. In this conversation, we discussed her work on affirmative consent in Victoria, what affirmative consent means, how it is embedded in law, the limitations of law and room for reform. Rachael also spoke about the importance of being mindful of affirmative consent for individuals during sexual encounters and how they can do that.
