Course Summary

This research reassesses and responds to the significant international challenges of countering and mitigating the impacts of sexual and gender-based violence (SGBV).The body of research has evolved over a significant period of time as the understanding of the drivers of SGBV have matured practitioners (government, non-governmental, educators, healthcare, safe guarders, law enforcement) have become more prominent in dealing with the impacts of SGBV and the policy environment has consequentially responded to the cause and effects of SGBV and adopted innovative ways of tackling the issue.This portfolio has resulted in a substantial body of research that has challenged conventional wisdom on SGBV and has created new ways of engaging with affected communities and those that provide services to survivors. The research portfolio is centred around a core group of key researchers located in the Communities, Politics and Identities Research Group within CTPSR. A number of projects within the portfolio have been led by Coventry University in collaboration with other UK and international universities as well as non-academic partners.
