ANZSOC would like to congratulate Dr Mary Illiadis – Dr Mary Iliadis, Senior Lecturer in Criminology at Deakin University and Co-Convenor of the Deakin Network Against Gendered Violence, has been awarded the Vice-Chancellors Early-Career Researcher Award for Career Excellence.
Dr Mary Iliadis’ research expertise are in the areas of domestic, family and sexual violence, victims’ rights, legal representation for victims of sexual offences, and procedural and substantive justice for victim/survivors. Her work is situated within broader debates about the role, rights and treatment of victims of gender-based violence in adversarial legal systems, and outlines prospects for the transfer of policy and practice between national and international jurisdictions. Dr Iliadis’ scholarship has featured in national and international commissions of inquiry, and the real-world application of her work can be seen in the education and training of practitioners and strategies to impact legal, policy and practice reform.
