Домашнее насилие стало системной проблемой на Северном Кавказе, угрожающей жизни женщин. Сохранение крайних форм насилия, которые остаются социально одобряемыми усиливают угрозу жизни здоровью женщин и детей. На семинаре мы рассмотрим истоки, причины, и последствия вредных практик на жизнь людей и общества. Будут использованы данные авторки, ученой и правозащитницы, полученные в ходе многолетних социологических исследований в Россиии и на Северном Кавказе.
Domestic violence has become a systemic problem in the North Caucasus, and one that threatens women's lives. The persistence of extreme forms of violence, which society condones, increases threats to the lives and health of women and children. This conference will examine the origins, causes and consequences of harmful practices on the lives of individuals and communities. It will draw on data gathered by the speaker, an academic and human rights activist, over years of sociological research in Russia and the North Caucasus.
