That workshop highlighted two concerns about the state of research on conflict sexual violence.&nbsp;&nbsp;First, economies \u2013 the social relationships involved in pursuing a livelihood \u2014 are an important, but little understood, context affecting risks of conflict sexual violence. Second, Africa-based researchers are isolated from other researchers, CSOs, and research dissemination channels, affecting the production and dissemination of needed research on this theme.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Bujumbura workshop, and the fostering of research connections, will stimulate and mobilize research on this theme of importance to both African and Canadian researchers and policy makers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Doris Buss from the Department of Law and Legal Studies and Blair Rutherford, Director of the Institute of African Studies and member of the Department of Sociology and Anthropology have been awarded a SSHRC Connection Grant to further collaboration between Carleton University and African researchers and human rights groups to promote research into conflict sexual [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[10,24,4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-9744","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-faculty-in-the-news","category-research-grants","category-research-news"],"acf":{"cu_post_thumbnail":false},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/law\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9744","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/law\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/law\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/law\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/law\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=9744"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/law\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9744\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":13630,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/law\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9744\/revisions\/13630"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/law\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=9744"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/law\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=9744"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/law\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=9744"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
