Through these demonstration projects, the VAW hub determines the best models of practice in community-academic partnerships

One major goal of the VAW hub is to help create Canadian-wide community-campus partnerships to聽work towards better legal and public policies related to violence against women in Canada.

The VAW hub works from the position that:

  • VAW is a large-scale, deeply rooted systemic social problem;
  • Addressing VAW requires a new approach as VAW incidents continue to remain high; and
  • Partnered research can create better public understanding of the complexities of violence against women

The VAW hub Steering Committee includes:
