Advanced Insights into Domestic Abuse and Violence – Part 2

Advanced Insights into Domestic Abuse and Violence – Part 2 builds on the psychological focus of Part 1 by examining domestic abuse through a sociological, research-based lens. This course explores abuse as a socially embedded phenomenon shaped by culture, power, institutions, media, and policy, drawing on evidence and key theorists such as Lenore Walker. Learners examine societal myths, stigma, silencing, and structural inequalities that perpetuate abuse. Designed for professionals, students, advocates, survivors, and anyone committed to social justice, the course equips participants with critical sociological insights to challenge harmful narratives, understand systemic influences, and support meaningful cultural and social change.
