UWS to host screening of anti-stalking documentary
The Crime, Justice & Security Research Group at the University of the West of Scotland is holding a public screening of the UWS-produced short documentary Unsilenced on 11 June from 4.00pm at the UWS Paisley Campus.
Unsilenced features the story of Dr Ann Moulds CBE, an honorary doctor of the University of the West of Scotland, and a survivor of stalking who campaigned successfully for stalking to be recognised as a crime, and who launched the first anti-stalking charity in the UK.
The short documentary screening will be followed by an expert panel discussion facilitated by Dr Maria Sapouna, senior lecturer in criminology & criminal justice at UWS, and will feature contributions from Dr Ann Moulds CBE; along with DCI Gary Sergeant of Police Scotland; Shannon Russell, head of policy & campaigns at Action Against Stalking; Louise Johnson, national policy lead at Scottish Women’s Aid; and Dr Matt Frew, senior lecturer in enterprise & transformational technologies at UWS.
This event would be of interest to academics, practitioners and policy-makers working in the area of stalking, gender-based violence, domestic abuse and women’s rights.
Join us on Thursday 11 June for this in-person event at UWS Paisley campus, which will commence at 4.00pm, followed by refreshments and networking from 5.00pm – 5.30pm.
Delegate places for this event must please be registered in advance here.
