Untangling the Barriers to Ending Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) in Rural Communities
October 30 @ 3:00 pm – 4:30 pm CST
On October 30th at 5pm ET the NFU Women’s Caucus is hosting an on-line workshop with Pamela Cross, a feminist lawyer and author of “And Sometimes they Kill You: Confronting the Epidemic of Intimate Partner Violence”. The workshop will explore what Intimate Partner Violence (IPV)/Gender Based Violence (GBV) is, what it looks like in rural communities and the truly transformative actions we can take to end it.
Open to all NFU members and allies interested in learning about and taking action against gender based violence. (Reading Pamela’s book is recommended but not required.)
Pamela Cross is a feminist lawyer; a well-known and respected expert on violence against women and the law. She works as a researcher, writer, educator and trainer with women’s equality and violence against women organizations across Canada. Pamela’s book was shortlisted for the Donner Prize for the best public policy book written by a Canadian.
