Webinar: The SPARX Program: Promoting Healthy Relationships and Preventing Dating Violence by Raising Awareness Among Youth, Caregivers, and Professionals
This session provides an accessible introduction into the world of basic income and what its implementation could mean for people impacted by or at-risk of gender-based violence. Participants will gain insights into the connections between basic income advocacy and anti-violence and gender-equity work, and will be encouraged to consider the impacts of basic income for supporting people’s safety and autonomy.
Webinar: Gynecological and Obstetric Violence
Based on quantitative and qualitative data collected in Quebec over the past two years by the PAROLES project, this presentation will illustrate areas of tension between the needs of women and individuals receiving care and the care actually provided. We will address, in particular, the relationship between healthcare staff and patients, autonomy and free will, and conclude with some recommendations formulated by those most directly affected.
Webinar: Helping the Helpers: Recognizing and Responding to Brain Injury from Intimate Partner Violence
Many survivors of intimate partner violence (IPV) may also be living with ongoing challenges because of brain injury (BI) caused by hits to the head, face, or neck and/or strangulation. It is critical that we make sure workers who encounter survivors are educated and equipped. This webinar is designed to create consistent knowledge and awareness of the hidden public health crisis of IPV-BI across Canada.
Have you listened to the RESOLVing Violence Podcast yet?
The province of Saskatchewan is home to a vibrant research community and hundreds of organizations and service providers working to prevent, respond to, and assist with recovery from violence and abuse.
Through this podcast, we hope to facilitate that transfer of knowledge from the research community to these applied stakeholders and people with lived experience, to make staying up to date on current research that much more accessible and efficient.
