Webinar: Torture, Abuse, Gore, and More: Young People’s Exposure to Authentic Violent Content Online
This webinar will showcase results from research with Canadian teens (13-18) about their exposure to authentic violence, gore, and extremist content. It will share insights about the kinds of content they are seeing, where they see it, and the responses and supports they want to prevent or mitigate this.
Webinar: Teaching to Reach Diverse Learners: From Classrooms to Professional Training
Educational inequities exist across settings and have powerful impacts on the experiences of diverse learners, particularly those with intersecting identities. Using culturally responsive and inclusive teaching frameworks as a foundation for this webinar, Dr. Anjana Balakrishnan will offer a research-informed overview of how diverse learners are supported by educators, research supervisors, and within professional training programs. The webinar will also introduce attendees to practical resources, contemporary academic and practice-related considerations, and implementable actions for designing more equitable and welcoming learning spaces. The topics explored will be relevant to individuals working across education, research, policy and practice settings.
Webinar: Gender-Based Violence in a Migration and Refugee Context: Forms, Impacts, Barriers and Responses
This presentation is based on research conducted by a Canadian research team as part of the multi-country, interdisciplinary project, “Violence against Women Migrants and Refugees: Analysing Causes and Effective Policy Response”. The Canadian team was led by academic co-investigators from Saint Mary’s University, University of Guelph, University of Manitoba and University of New Brunswick who supervised postdoctoral fellows, graduate and undergraduate students. The research benefited from consultations with an Expert Advisory Group.
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.
