The need for children and young people to learn about violence against women and girls (VAWG) has been voiced since the late 1980s. This is the first ever book on educational work to prevent VAWG, providing the most comprehensive contribution to our knowledge and understanding in this area. By bringing together international examples of research and practice, the book offers insight into the underpinning theoretical debates and key lessons for practice, addressing the complexities and challenges of developing, implementing and evaluating educational work to prevent VAWG. This multidisciplinary book will be of interest to educationalists, VAWG and child welfare practitioners, policy makers, researchers and students.

Recensioner i media

"A valuable book which brings together research and practice and attends to all the dilemmas that arise about defensiveness, victim-blaming and the need to avoid individualized analyses. It should be read widely." Dr Pam Alldred, Senior Lecturer in the Division of Social Work, Brunel University London "This collection is full of theoretical, conceptual, empirical, practical and thoughtful insights: it covers a wide range of themes" - Sex Education, Geraldine Brady. "This volume should be a staple for parents and practitioners who seek a comprehensive review and evidence-based techniques to effectively address factors associated with violence against women and girls." Choice Connect "In bringing together insights from both practitioners and researchers in the UK and North America, this highly welcome edited collection addresses an important gap in current VAWG literature." Dr Melanie McCarry, Connect Centre, University of Central Lancashire "This important and timely collection places the prevention of violence against women and girls as central to the work of education in schools and beyond and explores how this can be achieved." Professor Moira Carmody, University of Western Sydney
