Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Programs that target the primary prevention, secondary or tertiary intervention or recovery from gendered violence are essential to reduce and eliminate violence against women and children across all age groups and among groups of diverse cultural, ethnic, disability, sexual and Indigenous backgrounds. This Special Issue will focus on evidence-based prevention and intervention programs that address gendered violence in order to promote our understanding of which programs are effective, and among which populations, and the lessons for future researchers and practitioners who intend to reduce violence against women and children.
We invite you to submit your research that addresses gendered violence through prevention and intervention programs for any age group or people from diverse cultural, ethnic, sexual and ability backgrounds. The manuscript could belong to any of the following categories: reviews, study protocol and research studies.
