dc.description.abstractThis report, titled "Collaborating for Change: Exploring Gender Equity, Empowerment, and Violence at the University of the Western Cape," presents interim findings from a qualitative study conducted under the Gender Equity and Empowerment Project (GEEP). The research aims to address critical issues surrounding sexual and gender-based violence (SGBV) within South African universities, particularly UWC. Through Key Informant Interviews with students and staff, the report highlights perceptions of institutional strengths, weaknesses, and opportunities for improvement in addressing gender norms and SGBV. The findings emphasize the importance of practice-based knowledge in shaping effective responses to these challenges and contribute to a broader understanding of how universities can enhance their duty of care towards students while fostering a safer and more inclusive academic environment.
