Dr. Crystal Giesbrecht, is the Director of Research at the Provincial Association of Transition Houses and Services of Saskatchewan (PATHS), the member association for domestic violence shelters and counselling centres. Her work at PATHS includes conducting research relating to intimate partner violence (IPV) and delivering training for professionals. She is a member of the Expert Advisory Panel for the Canadian Femicide Observatory for Justice and Accountability, a member of Saskatchewan’s Multi-Sector Review Committee for Clare’s Law, and was a case review team member for Saskatchewan’s most recent Domestic Violence Death Review. She has published research relating to IPV intervention programs; newcomer women’s experiences of IPV; the intersection of IPV, animal maltreatment, and animal safekeeping; the workplace impact of IPV; coercive control; and addressing data gaps in the study of domestic homicide. Crystal completed her PhD in Justice Studies at the University of Regina in 2024. Her doctoral research related to typologies of perpetrators of IPV.
Dr. Nadine Wathen, PhD, FCAHS is Professor and Canada Research Chair in Mobilizing Knowledge on Gender-Based Violence in the Arthur Labatt Family School of Nursing at Western University, and Academic Director of the Centre for Research on Health Equity and Social Inclusion. Nadine’s research examines the health and social service sector response to gender-based violence, interventions to reduce health inequities, and the science of knowledge mobilization. A particular focus is developing person-centred interventions, and learning and practice resources, that enhance health equity, and take a gendered, trauma- and violence-informed approach to providing services for those experiencing violence and/or marginalization. She is deeply committed to a partnership approach to research and knowledge sharing and has led a number of federally funded research initiatives, and international research and knowledge mobilization networks.
Moderated by Caitlin Burd, PhD candidate and research associate in the Arthur Labatt’s School of Nursing at Western University. Through her work as a relief Residential Counsellor at a women’s shelter in Ontario, she developed a passion for supporting women and children experiencing abuse, and a desire to further her understanding of the systems involved in addressing intimate partner violence in Canada. Her broad research interests center on issues related to violence against women and gender inequality, intersectionality, and problem-setting in Canadian public policy. Caitlin’s doctoral work focuses on analyzing the framing of intimate partner violence, and preventative solutions in Canadian policy and federally funded programs to develop ways to strengthen Canada’s approach to addressing violence.
