imageWe have carried out ground-breaking work in the area of violence and its effect on education. We have produced two special issues of Women's Education des femmes, organized a series of workshops across Canada for adult educators and trainers on issues of violence against women and published the findings and other useful info in a kit called Isolating the Barriers and Strategies for Prevention, and we have developed a series of tact sheets and pamphlets focused on young women, Making Change: Raising awareness about violence against women as a barrier to women's education. To name a few things.
