Here is the abstract from the presentation:聽

Digital and physical forms of sexual violence (SV) have, over the last two decades, resulted in significant dilemmas for legislators and educational policymakers. Institutional responses need to be proactive, informed, and cohesive to reduce and prevent SV. Our research and community partnership, titled iMPACTS, integrates the fields of education, law/policy, activism, art, popular culture, news media, and social media to adopt creative and innovative dialogues to address the complexities of SV through three domains: a) law and policy; b) art, activism, and popular culture; and c) news and social media. We present conceptual, critical, legal, and contextual approaches that informed development of the partnership. Under Project A, we expose and analyze barriers in law and policy responses to SV regarding due process and procedural fairness within 鈥渦niversity contexts鈥� and online spaces. Project B examines how art and popular culture can tacitly condone SV and how activism like the #MeToo movement can inspire change. Project C similarly investigates how news and social media can (re)victimize survivors of SV and how media organizations can mobilize to affect significant change. Our presenters will provide an overview and examples of the objectives and milestones achieved over eight years of research under iMPACTS that bring together international and Canadian university and community partners, academics, policy makers, and activists. Overall, our presentation will challenge the audience to think critically about contemporary approaches to engaging SV research, evidence-based and creative responses, and prevention through innovative and interdisciplinary partnered projects in multiple sectors of society.
