Webinar series: Data, Action and the Intersection between VAC + VAW

SVRI, US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and Together for Girls
Join us in May and June to discuss how the Violence against Children and Youth Surveys can support global research on intersections between violence against children and violence against women.

Join the SVRI in collaboration with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and Together for Girls in this two-part 90 minute webinar series. One webinar will be hosted for and focused on Latin America and the Caribbean and the second on the Africa region.

In building awareness of the Violence against Children and Youth Surveys (VACS) data availability and application, we will demonstrate how VACS data can be a resource to answer critical questions around violence against children and violence against women in global contexts.

These webinars will provide an overview of the VACS, discuss how VACS can support global research on intersections between VAC and VAW, particularly among early-career researchers, and explore how to use VACS to translate data into action.
