Public square in gender research: Forging nonviolent communities?

Ending gender based violenc in South Africa

Gender-based violence (GBV) remains a devastating problem in South African society, and interventions from the government are lacking. While there is now a National Strategic Plan on GBV and Intimate Femicide, it is not being rolled out successfully. GBV is a structural problem entrenched in all spheres of society, which means that addressing it requires thinking trans-disciplinarily and creatively. 

This Public Square in Gender Research: Ending gender-based violence, will be a problem-focused platform of multi- and transdisciplinary research and innovation.

The aim is to leverage funding to support the design of various research projects and interventions to decrease this persistent societal challenge.?
