[ecrea] Call for participants: “Health Literacy And Communication In Crisis: Gender-Based Violence And Syrian Refugees” workshop

Call for participants: “Health Literacy And Communication In Crisis: 
Gender-Based Violence And Syrian Refugees” workshop

This workshop is aimed at early career researchers (ECRs) _from the UK 
and Turkey_, who will gather at Strathclyde University in Glasgow for 
three days (13-15 September) to share their experiences and research on 
the topic of gender-based violence and refugees, and relate it to the 
experiences of Syrian refugees. The workshop will explore these issues 
from the perspectives of health communication and health literacy.

This workshop is funded by a grant under the Newton Fund: Researcher 
Links programme by British Council and in partnership with TUBITAK ARBIS 
in Turkey.

We invite ECRs from universities in the UK and Turkey, plus experts 
working in NGOs dealing with health or refugees in both countries. 
Participants should work within health literacy or health communication, 
gender violence, refugee assistance, or cross-cultural communication. 
Participants should have a PhD awarded within the past 10 years. Those 
in the non-profit sector will need an equivalent level of research 
experience if they do not possess a doctorate. The workshop will be held 
in English.

_All travel and accommodation expenses of successful candidates will be 
covered by the Newton Researcher Links programme_.
