Transforming Cultures: A Trans-Atlantic Conversation about Gender-Based Violence<\/strong><\/p>\n

We’ve recently seen unprecedented attention to cultures that support or challenge gender-based violence: disclosures about violence and abuse by Harvey Weinstein and others; the #MeToo and #TimesUp campaigns; plans to outlaw ‘upskirting’; Dr Christine Ford’s accusations about Judge Brett Kavanaugh, to name just a few.<\/p>\n

Northumbria University will host a seminar which will reflect on these developments in the UK and the US and is delighted to welcome two eminent scholars\/activsts\/practitioners:<\/p>\n

Professor Susan Marine<\/strong>, Merrimack College, US will speak about how the Kavanaugh Supreme Court hearings are shaping discourse about sexual violence in high school and college.<\/p>\n

Ms Cullagh Warnock<\/strong>, expert on gender-based violence, will talk about the role of specialist women\u2019s organisations in improving services and policy around gender-based violence.<\/p>\n

Wednesday, 24 October 2018,<\/p>\n

5-6.30pm, Lipman Building, Lecture Theatre 03<\/p>\n
