(Collaborative Doctoral Award)Project backgroundDomestic abuse causes serious harm to individuals and families and remains a persistent challenge for public services. Inthe UK, 6.5 million adults are estimated to have directly experienced domestic abuse (8.4% of women and 4.2% of men in2018-19). Most services still place the onus on victims and families, to try to keep themselves safe, often by takingmeasures with a high personal cost, such as leaving their home. Few engage with perpetrators to stop the abuse in the firstplace. A failure to deal effectively with perpetrators leaves violent and abusive behaviours and attitudes unchallenged. And it risks displacing rather than reducing domestic abuse.Islington Council Violence against Women and Girls Service has recently received £2million to transform its domesticabuse provision. Developing new and innovative measures to engage and deal with perpetrators is a key priority.Project aims and objectivesThis 3-year fully funded studentship will give a PhD researcher the opportunity to work with Islington and a team of expert academics at the University of Essex's centre for criminology, to produce new findings and recommendations on how to reduce the harm caused by perpetrators.Project supervisors have strong relationships with government and with key domestic abuse organisations. The successful candidate will be supported to become an important independent scholar in the field and develop a strong academic career.

（合作博士奖）项目背景家庭暴力对个人和家庭造成严重伤害，仍然是公共服务的一个持续挑战。在英国，估计有650万成年人直接遭受过家庭暴力（2018-19年，8.4%的女性和4.2%的男性）。大多数服务机构仍然把保护自己安全的责任推给受害者及其家属，通常是采取个人成本较高的措施，比如离开家。很少有人与施虐者接触，从一开始就阻止虐待。如果不能有效处理犯罪者，暴力和虐待行为和态度就无法得到挑战。而且它有可能取代而不是减少家庭暴力。伊斯灵顿委员会反妇女和女童暴力服务机构最近收到了200万英镑，用于改变其家庭虐待条款。制定新的和创新的措施来接触和处理肇事者是一个关键的优先事项。这个为期3年的全额奖学金将为博士研究员提供与伊斯灵顿和埃塞克斯大学犯罪学中心的专家学者团队合作的机会，就如何减少肇事者造成的伤害提出新的发现和建议。项目主管与政府和主要的家暴组织有着密切的关系。成功的候选人将被支持成为该领域的重要独立学者，并发展强大的学术生涯。
