Episode 6: Addressing Intimate Partner & Gender-Based Violence – Law Syrup Accompanying Resource

Stemming from the inaugural season of our public legal education podcast Law Syrup, we’ve developed a suite of accompanying resources for each of the individual episodes. Check out the resource below to enhance your students’ learning and expand the different ways to engage with the various legal topics and issues that we tackled during the podcast’s first season.

Episode 6:

For this episode of Law Syrup, we welcome guest host Amelia Berot-Burns, a program manager in OJEN’s Educator Support department, for a conversation with LEAF Executive Director Pam Hrick. Together, they examine intimate-partner and gender-based violence, how it is currently addressed in Canadian law, the potential and benefits of restorative justice, and how to support survivors, “wrongdoers” and the wider community. The accompanying resource guides you and your students through these sensitive issues, encouraging critical thought and compassion.
