Academy of Medical Sciences GCRF Network grant: Infusing Law and Policy with the Voices of Displaced Survivors of Sexual Violence in Conflict​

Prof. Jill Marshall and Dr. Ndagire

Thanks to an amazing community of educators, activists and most importantly survivors of conflict related sexual violence (CRSV). This project involves listening to and learning from the lived experiences of those survivors in Uganda, home to the largest group of refugees in the world, having fled from many conflicts and countries in the region. Prof Marshall and Dr Ndagire established links between our research teams and institutions and are joint principal investigators on the grant. They have worked with the Regional Training Facility of the Great Lakes Region and a local illustrator to capture artistic representations of survivors’ voices.
