It’s time to Chat the Weird Out! Let’s embrace the odd, the awkward, and the downright bizarre chats we should feel confident enough to have, but often don’t.
Chat the Weird Out is one of New Zealand’s first tertiary education-based healthy relationship campaigns. Created by students and led by University of Auckland staff from Campus Life, it encourages students nationwide to engage in those awkward conversations that are essential for establishing boundaries in various relationships. It aims to empower individuals to resolve conflicts arising from miscommunication, catering to a youth demographic that has expressed discomfort with conflict and tends to prioritise other feelings over their own, due to Aotearoa’s people-pleasing culture.
