Seeds of Possibility: Understanding Alternative Justice Practices in the Gender-Based Violence Sector

This two-day Virtual Forum will take place on February 4, 2025, and February 5, 2025, from 1:00PM to 4:00PM (ET) on each day.

This Forum will explore how alternative justice practices can enhance prevention, practices, and responses within the gender-based violence (GBV) movement and sector. Forum speakers will include community and organizational leaders, practitioners, researchers, and advocates working across sectors to end violence, ensure accountability and build safer, more equitable communities.
