Free virtual event to recognize and hear from Alexandra Lysova, an associate professor in the School of Criminology at Simon Fraser University in Canada. Event is on Wednesday, October 19 from 6:30 - 8:30pm PST.

Alexandra Lysova is the 2022 recipient of the Nora and Ted Sterling Prize in Support of Controversy for her years of dedicated research on male victims of domestic violence –– a field that can sometimes be fraught with polarizing and politicized debate.

“In my work, I started to look at the violence against women and children, but I heard men’s voices as well. I’ve seen this in the statistics, that there are men who experience abuse, and I was surprised to see how much this topic was avoided and was not discussed,” Lysova says. “I think if we stop talking about the issue, it does not go away. It stays with us. What’s the point of playing politics around this if it doesn’t help us prevent abuse?”
