In this episode, Catherine Donovan discusses a multi-institutional study conducted in England with colleagues Khatidja Chantler, Rachel Fenton,  and Kelly Bracewell, exploring barriers and facilitators to implementing the recommendations of the UUK (2016) report on violence against women, harassment and hate crimes, particularly focusing on sexual violence and harassment. Interviews were conducted with twenty-five volunteers and here we focus on the six interviews conducted with academics. Participant accounts reveal how, in becoming cognisant of the power structures within their universities, they were able to identify the way that power operated to stall or block promoting the GBV agenda, and to point to the transformative measures they had taken to circumvent barriers.
