The Gender-Based Violence Research Initiative is now accepting proposals to support academic researchers, in partnership with other community-based research-focused organizations, to advance knowledge and analyze the causes and persistence of gender-based violence in Canada.
This research could focus on prevention methods, access to justice and support services for victims and survivors.
The Gender-Based Violence Research Initiative will provide approximately five grants for four-year formal research partnerships between a post-secondary institution and at least one partner organization from the not-for-profit, public or private sectors, to foster the joint generation of new knowledge, capacity building and knowledge mobilization on critical issues related to gender-based violence in Canada. The Partnership Grants will serve as hubs for intersectional, collaborative, and challenge-based research activities and knowledge mobilization, as well as for incubating new research partnerships.
