    Reviews

    Sexual violence is a global crisis in institutions of higher education, and the UK is far from immune. While many survivors have often been forced to carry the weight of advocacy on their own, it has always been clear that the fight for safer campuses must involve the entire university. Stopping Gender-based Violence in Higher Education is a call to higher education professionals to understand the causes of violence, and encourage them to see ending gender-based violence as an occupational responsibility. Towl and Humphreys do an excellent job of assembling a collection of thoughts from experts across the UK, and send an urgent message to educators: it’s time to follow the lead of survivors, and join the fight to make our universities safer for all. - Andrea L. Pino-Silva, co-author of "We Believe You: Survivors of Campus Sexual Assault Speak Out," and Co-Founder of End Rape on Campus, USAStopping Gender-Based Violence in Higher Education is an essential handbook that covers student-student, staff-student, and staff-staff violence. This collection will educate experts even as it provides direction for those new to handling complaints. Most importantly, the chapters centre in bold relief the experiences of victim-survivors. - Mara Keire, University of Oxford, UKThis comprehensive exploration into the many facets, manifestations and intersections of gender-based violence in higher education is long overdue. The insightful and well researched contributions make this essential reading for all those who work in the sector. - Amatey Doku, former Vice President Higher Education, National Union of Students (NUS) and Independent Board member, Guildhall School of Music and Drama, UKThis volume is essential reading for anyone interested in tackling campus violence. Drawing on diverse perspectives from across fields, it paints a sophisticated tableau of the problems faced, root causes, and possible solutions. Achieving a diverse and inclusive higher education sector requires the ambition and inclusive approach that this volume reflects. - Georgina Calvert-Lee, Senior Litigation Counsel, McAllister Olivarius, UK
