The definition of gender-based violence and statistics that may shock you.
This video is designed to define gender-based violence. Who is most at risk? Who is vulnerable? Where does it happen? And, most importantly, how it impacts those of us who live in the Annapolis Valley.
The Coordinator of the gender-based violence project, Wendy Knowlton, offers a definition and some statistics that may shock you. This information makes it clear why people in the Valley
should care about this issue.
Two women offer their personal experiences of gender-based violence and how it impacts their lives. Their perspectives offer a personal take on the statistics and how it affects very real
people.
Isa Bishop-Gates, the Executive Director of The Women’s Place Resource Centre, discusses the resources the centre can provide and has a message of hope for positive change in the Valley.
This video was directed and filmed by Jessica Bailey, owner and operator of Speyeral Beauty. The funding was provided by The Status of Women Office in Nova Scotia.
