If you have an interest in gender-based violence - whether you are just starting out, or have made this issue part of your life's work - you are welcome here!

NNVAWI started as a network of nurses committed to strengthening knowledge and action on violence against women, particularly in health care. Our members are largely nurses and midwives from around the globe, but also include amazing people from many other disciplines.

Over time, the aims of NNVAWI have expanded from a focus on women to include all forms of gender-based violence and structural violence.

We aim to create an environment that is welcoming and inviting - a safe place to exchange ideas, expand your thinking, make connections, and cultivate your curiosity and passion!

We are particularly committed to engaging and supporting students and early career researchers and practitioners.
