Research Assistant ‘Changing the Narrative of Domestic Abuse’
Do you have an aptitude for carrying out research? Are you looking to gain research experience supporting an established academic? Do you have an interest in domestic abuse and impact research?
We are looking to recruit an enthusiastic individual with an aptitude for research to support Dr Rebecca Shaw on her ‘Changing the Narrative of Domestic Abuse’ research project – a collaborative and impact focused research project funded by the ESRC Creating Opportunities through Local Innovation Fellowship. Specifically, the project aims to:
1. Work alongside local and regional government, schools, third sector organisations and West Yorkshire Police to assess current educational resources for school children through the lens of ‘changing the narrative’ and identify gaps in provision, specifically focusing on assessing current preventative tools.
2. Forge a local and regional level policy on how to tackle and change the cultural narrative of domestic abuse, which can be scaled up to a national level.
3. Collaborate with partners, those with lived experience of domestic abuse and local artists to develop a proposal for funding of a cultural programme, and accompanying hub, aimed at young children to improve understanding, and change perceptions, of domestic abuse.
