Research and Education for Solutions to Violence and Abuse (RESOLVE) is a tri-prairie research network that co-ordinates and supports research aimed at ending gender-based violence.
RESOLVE Alberta is a member of the Alliance of Canadian Research Centres established by the federal government in 1992, following the 1989 murder of 14 women at Ecole Polytechnique in Montreal, QC. Comprised of seven centres:
- Centre for Research and Education on Violence Against Women and Children (CREVAWC)
- The Freda Centre for Research on Violence Against Women and Children
- Le Centre de Recherche Interdisciplinaire sur la Violence Familiale et la Violence Faite aux Femmes (CRI-VIFF)
- Muriel McQueen Fergusson Centre for Family Violence Research
- RESOLVE Manitoba
- RESOLVE Saskatchewan
The alliance has undertaken national studies with our initial focus was on the victimization of girls and women, but overtime our agenda has broadened in response to our growing understanding of violence in our society, without losing sight of the heightened risks faced by girls and women.
The goal of RESOLVE is to reduce the incidence and impact of violence and abuse by:
- creating and evaluating strategies to address violence and abuse;
- communicating our research results to the public and policy makers;
- promoting education, awareness, and social change.
To accomplish this we:
- work with community groups to identify areas where additional research needs to be done;
- develop action-oriented research projects;
- work in interdisciplinary teams in partnership with community groups and other universities and centres in Canada;
- we train students and members of the community organization in research methods.
