Decolonising knowledge production in the field of violence against women is about empowerment. Instead of allowing Western ideals to dominate knowledge production, we must refocus our attention on the lived experiences of those who are most affected by violence, and whose expertise is often ignored, as we search for solutions.

In this episode we learn about the connection between practise based knowledge and decolonisation, and how the two concepts can improve violence prevention programmes and outcomes. We find out how legal experts can play a part in ensuring the full inclusion of those with first-hand experience and knowledge. And we discuss how the funding of research and interventions needs to also be overhauled and decolonised.

Our guests are:

Joy Watson, Feminist Researcher and Writer

Terry McGovern, Harriet and Robert Heilbrunn Professor, Chair of the Department of Population and Family Health, Director of Global Health Justice and Governance

Tarisai Mchuchu-MacMillan, Executive Director at MOSAIC Women's Training Service and Healing Centre

Your hosts are:

Elizabeth Dartnall, Executive Director, SVRI
