This master’s in Gender, Power and Violence explores current academic, policy and practice debates in the specific field of gendered harms, considering issues from multiple disciplinary lenses to understand how gendered violence and harms differentially affect gendered bodies and lives. The programme will combine theoretical, empirical and applied content to explore how gendered experiences of abuse can be explained, experienced, researched and challenged in local and global contexts.
Gender-Based Violence (GBV) is an area of increasing policy and public concern, described by the World Health Organisation as a global public health pandemic. This programme’s content is at the forefront of current issues and debates in the field, such as tech-facilitated gendered harms, engaging men and boys, and debates around online misogyny.

In its diverse forms, Gender Based Violence (GBV) poses current issues of pressing concern that Governments, both at home and internationally, are committed to addressing, leading to strong employment prospects in a range of fields.
Importantly, GBV is increasingly framed as a ‘multi-agency’ issue that requires a ‘whole system response’, meaning that it is not just the responsibility of criminal justice agencies, but also health, education, social care, housing and voluntary sector organisations. With an increasingly wide array of sectors forming part of this vital multi-agency response, as a graduate you will be well placed to lead the response to GBV through a wide variety of roles where GBV is a significant aspect of your work.
