A following case study was published under the theme - Promoting Intersectional Development Research, Southern Centre for Inequality Studies, University of the Witwatersrand.
It is based on a project aimed at generating evidence on Sexual and Gender-based violence (SGBV) against young girls and women in India. Project is based on CEHAT’s recognition that most grassroots organisations working on SGBV collect and record data and information in different ways but do not have the time, skills, or resources to carry out the synthesis of their data.
One of the learnings from the project is that creating fluidity between research and service provision, allowing for an understanding of each other’s work, flattens the hierarchies that exist between civil society organisations and the research community. Breaking that hierarchy should be seen as an integral part of feminist intersectionality.
