Overview
In this unit, students will examine key national and international databases that document patterns of gendered family violence. Students will use information contained within these databases to develop relevant knowledge about the health and broader societal impacts of family violence. Through this exercise, students will be introduced to new knowledge about the long-term effects of violence within families. Drawing from this knowledge, they will develop a research report supported by the Unit Coordinator, with input from other staff as appropriate.
