What’s on offer?

This afternoon event will be based on higher education students with minoritised identities responding to the findings from the qualitative study of sexual violence victimisation and help-seeking of minoritised students. The day will be participative and workshop-based to allow student participants to discuss and give feedback on the findings.

An art-based part of the day will be included where participants will be invited to design poster/arts-based messages that highlight the intentions behind the research’s key findings. 

What’s it about?

Durham has been working with colleagues at Manchester Met and the University of Birmingham to conduct a qualitative study of minoritised students’ perceptions of sexual violence victimisation and help-seeking in universities. In this event, the project team aim to bring students together to hear the key findings and outline a strategy for change.
