Webinar: Sexual and Gender Minority Experiences of Intimate Partner Abuse and Help-Seeking: Insights from a Systematic Review
Intimate partner abuse (IPA) occurs in sexual and gender minority communities at rates comparable to, and in many cases in excess of, those in cisgender heterosexual communities, with most demographic groups showing rates of experiencing physical and sexual violence in excess of 50%. Despite this, formalized prevention and response services often exclude 2S/LGBTQ+ communities from accessing support. This session will highlight results from a recent systematic review including what we learned about help-seeking experiences, conceptualizations of intimate partnerships, and implications for IPA research methods.
Webinar: Trauma- and Violence-Informed Research: Principles, Practice, Reflection
This webinar explores trauma- and violence-informed (TVI) research as a practical approach for researchers at all levels. Participants will examine how TVI principles, including safety, choice, collaboration, and attention to structural and systemic violence, can be woven throughout the research process. Using applied examples and reflective prompts, the session encourages participants to consider what TVI approaches make possible in relationships with communities, partners, and research teams.
Webinar: Beyond Bill C-16: Turning Legislative Reform into Survivor Safety
Bill C-16 represents an important opportunity to strengthen Canada's response to gender-based violence. This session will explore the legislation through a survivor-centred and systems-change lens, focusing not only on what the Bill proposes, but why these reforms matter, what they could mean for survivors and the GBV sector, and the implementation considerations necessary to translate legislative change into meaningful improvements in survivor safety.
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.
