Abstract

This article relies on literature from the field and on research conducted by the National Violence Against Women Prevention Research Center to describe the difficulties encountered in collaborations between researchers and advocates working on the prevention of violence against women. The article summarizes guidelines for collaboration that have been suggested by many researchers and advocates, and it makes the claim that a feminist approach to liberating methodologies for action research is needed to increase the likelihood of successful collaborations.
