Description
The ANZSOC Understanding, Preventing and Responding to Sexual Violence and Abuse Thematic Group brings together scholars, practitioners, along with those working in policy and advocacy to contribute towards building an evidence-base to better understand, prevent and respond to sexual violence and abuse. We promote inter-disciplinary research in sexual violence and abuse focused on, but not limited to: onset and pathways; harmful sexual behaviour; adult perpetrated offences; prevention strategies; diverse populations and contexts; criminal justice system responses; rehabilitation and reintegration; and desistance.
