Transnational Foundations for Ethical Practice in Interventions Against Violence Against Women and Child Abuse
Increasing recognition of the private spheres of family, sexuality and interpersonal relationships as sites for violence has led to transformations in law and policy at national and international levels. There is now a broad consensus in Europe that the state has responsibilities to protect children and women from violence. To enter these arenas, however, is to encounter complex intersections of power relations with respect to gender, generation and race/ethnicity, nationality, faith: a matrix of rights and responsibilities which professionals have to navigate. In this paper we use the overarching concept of intervention, drawing on its etymology: [ read more ]
Final Report
The Final Report of the Project CEINAV shows a detailed description of the project objectives, methodology and main achievements, as well as a list of the artistic outputs. The report gives an overview of the networking, dissemination and knowledge exchange activities highlighting the work developed with the associated partners in the four countries. It also includes a list of the publications relating to the work of CEINAV.
An Anthology of Stories
The CEINAV team sought to hear the voices of women and young people with a minority or migration background who had travelled through a history of violence and intervention. This anthology was created based on these interviews, in which the women and young people describe when and how the interventions helped them or failed to help, and what they think could be done better. The stories are all in their original language as well as translated to English, as an invitation to think about how the experiences may differ or be similar in different countries of Europe. The anthology is available as a print edition and also open access on this link.
Interview with Carol Hagemann-White and Maria José Magalhães in International Innovation: Dissemination Science, Research and Technology:
The Cultural Encounters in Interventions Against Violence project is a collaborative effort from researchers around Europe seeking to understand how cultural differences can affect the success of violence interventions for women and children. The findings could form the basis of future strategies in various European nations.
Seeking to understand the impact of violence interventions for women and children across Europe, Professor Dr Carol Hagemann-White and Professor Maria José Magalhães outline their joint project and respective research aims as well as the benefits of forming international partnerships. [ read more ]

Symbolic violence against women
Related with the research that is being carry on by CEINAV, Maria José Magalhães & Angelica Lima Cruz published an article about how art and culture play a complex role in relation to violence against women: on the one hand sometimes they work as mechanisms of reproduction of violence, or at least for its naturalization; on the other hand, they can also contribute to challenge the foundations of that violent culture.
