ICSoR 2012: The 3rd International Conference on Survivors of Rape
Rape Crisis Network Ireland (RCNI) are hosting the Third International Conference on Survivors of Rape (ICSoR) on November 9th and 10th 2012 in the city of Galway in the West of Ireland.
A seminar day will also take place on Thursday the 8th November.
This year’s conference will build on the strong foundations of previous conferences, and is intended to deepen our understanding of how to meet survivor needs with a sustained and robust multiagency approach.
RCNI are keen to make this conference a platform for learning, building up of relationships and research partnerships, which contribute to our shared international evidence base in responding to sexual violence.
This conference is of relevance to medical practitioners, psychotherapists, counsellors, advocates, police, legal and judicial professionals, policy makers, academics and researchers, specialist nursing practitioners, public representatives, activists and others.
ICSoR 2012 will be held in association with UNESCO Child and Family Research Centre and the Global Women's Studies Centre, NUI Galway.
