Gender Violence Research and Collaboration Network
Our aim is to create an inclusive and collaborative global platform for researchers at all career stages to advance the study and understanding of gender-based violence. By fostering a community of practice that emphasizes knowledge sharing, networking, and mentorship, we strive to support early career researchers while leveraging the expertise of experienced professionals.



Our Story
This community was born out of a shared need for support, connection, and empathy in a field that can often feel overwhelmingly challenging. Working in gender-based violence is draining, and finding the resources to care for our mental well-being can feel out of reach.
Today, we are more than just a network; we are a lifeline. Through online events, mentorship opportunities, and well-being programs, we’ve created a space where individuals can lean on one another, share their struggles, and find the strength to keep moving forward.
As we look to the future, we are inspired by the resilience of our members and the power of community. Together, we are making a difference, supporting each other, and proving that change is possible, even in the toughest times.
