TY - JOUR PY - 1999// TI - Research on violence against women: creating survivor-informed collaborations JO - Violence against women A1 - Gilfus, Mary E. A1 - Fineran, Susan A1 - Cohan, Deborah J.

This model promotes mutual learning and research that is multidisciplinary and survivor-informed. We offer examples of the structures, outcomes, and processes necessary to support effective collaboration. We define collaboration as a multilayered process and we address group tensions around differing perspectives and interests, promoting diversity and cohesiveness, and relationships of power and status that need to be negotiated. We emphasize the skills and expertise of advocates in all aspects of the research process.
