Yalcinoz Ucan, B., Tastsoglou, E., & Dawson, M. (2025). Tracing individual experiences to systemic challenges: The (re)production of GBV in migrant women’s experiences in Canada. Frontiers in Sociology, 10, 1528525.
Abstract
This study examines the experiences of migrant women survivors of gender-based violence (GBV) in Canada, focusing on their processes of disclosing violence and seeking help. It explores a range of migration-related factors and circumstances that shape migrant women’s responses to violence while also aiming to reveal how migration contexts determine system-and structural-level responses to GBV, which are then traced back to women’s individual experiences and responses.
