Mapping Prevention 2020: A report on Intersectional Approaches to Gender-Based Violence Prevention

Check out Mapping Prevention, an important and timely report from the Coalition Ending Gender-Based Violence that Darin contributed to along with several activists and organizers in the Seattle Area.

Mapping Prevention started as Mapping Prevention 2020 (MP2020) a short-term participatory action research initiative of the Coalition Ending Gender-based Violence in Seattle. MP2020 received funding from the King County Department of Community and Human Services to lead a community engagement process and identify frameworks of domestic and sexual violence prevention for strategic expansion through public funding. MP2020 was led by anti-violence community organizers committed to squarely centering the perspectives and experiences of Black and Indigenous people, and other People of Color in preventing domestic and sexual violence. We focus on approaches to domestic and sexual violence prevention that explicitly address racism and its intersections with sexism and other forms of oppression as root causes.
