Tuesday 13 November from 09:00 to 13:00
Room 4, University of Malta Valletta Campus
The Department of Criminology (Faculty for Social Wellbeing, University of Malta) is pleased to announce the Project CAPTIVE* (Cultural Agent - Promoting and Targeting Interventions vs. Violence and Enslavement) Final Conference.
The research and work conducted through project CAPTIVE in the past 2 years has allowed the project team to bolster their knowledge of sexual and gender-based violence among migrant and refugee women. The project has helped shed light on the different forms of S/GBV experienced by women at home, en route to Europe and upon arrival, as well as the barriers to help-seeking in host countries. Through a number of practical initiatives, including training of migrant women in S/GBV and work placements within local institutions Project CAPTIVE has also acted as a catalyst for change.
