027 | Protection from Violence Against Women in Forced Displacement: Integrating Religion | Sandra Iman Pertek

  • Summary

  • Dr. Sandra Iman Pertek is a ESRC Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Birmingham. She is a gender and social development specialist with over a decade’s experience in humanitarian, development, and migration settings. Her research integrates intersectional and ecological approaches for developing religious engagement with the continuum of violence in forced migration. In this conversation, we discuss her recent policy brief on the relevance of religion as both a potential factor of vulnerability and a source of resilience in settings of conflict.
