KX Spotlight: Co-creating community tailored intervention programs through collaboration and trust

This month the UBC Knowledge Exchange (KX) spotlights the equity-oriented intervention programs and partnerships of Dr. Vicky Bungay and Capacity Research Unit.

As director of Capacity Research Unit, Dr. Bungay works in close partnership with communities to close gaps in research and care for people regularly excluded from health and social policy programming, including women affected by violence. One of Capacity’s partnerships includes Scaling Up, a seven-year research project that is testing, implementing, and refining a community-led, strengths-based, and trauma and violence-informed outreach intervention to support self-identifying women who have experienced interpersonal and structural gender-based violence.

Trust and collaboration are at the core of Scaling Up’s community-based interventions and allow community leaders, researchers, staff, and women with lived and living experiences of gender-based violence to meaningfully guide and participate in all aspects of the project’s knowledge exchange.
