The Tyranny of Distance? – Domestic Abuse in Remote, Rural and Island Scotland

What is it like living with domestic abuse on Scotland’s rugged west coast and islands? How easy is it to escape abuse and find support in these picture-postcard places?   This webinar explores rural and island women’s experiences of domestic abuse, its dangers and impact and the challenges of implementing domestic abuse- informed practices (DA-I) in these areas.

Facilitator: Dr Anni Donaldson is an independent scholar, feminist oral historian and journalist. She is an Honorary Research Fellow at the University of Strathclyde, and Associate Fellow of the Royal Historical Society.  She specialises in research into women’s lives in the nineteen, twentieth and twenty-first centuries with a particular focus on domestic abuse and sexual violence in Scotland.
