S2E2 Practise-Based Knowledge

The Sexual Violence Research Podcast

There are many methods of gathering research, data and evidence in the work we do to end violence against women and violence against girls. One of those approaches is practice-based knowledge which considers the cumulative learning acquired by practitioners over many years, specifically through hands-on action.

In this episode, we learn more about what practise-based knowledge is, why it’s so important in the efforts to improve our prevention programming and how it helps tell a more inclusive story about addressing Violence Against Women. We also discuss the limitations of practice-based knowledge and consider some of the reasons it's not being prioritised.

Our guests are:

Jean Kemitare, from Urgent Action Fund in Africa

Gemma Wood, UN Trust Fund to End Violence against Women

Your hosts are:

Elizabeth Dartnall, Executive Director, SVRI

Angelica Pino, Grants Manager and Capacity Strengthening Specialist, SVRI
