Violence Against Women

by Louise Livesey // 23 July 2008, 17:05

In case people haven't seen it, Julie Bindel writes a very eloquent and passionate piece in the Guardian on Violence Against Women here. She's reflecting particularly on the tenth anniversary of Emma Humphries death and the implications and shortfalls of work on violence against women.

On a related note the Department for Children, Families and Schools has a consultation out on sexual explotation (child prostitution) here.
