- Expand its digital knowledge hub to support institutional adoption of research findings.
This work aims to strengthen gender equality by improving equitable access to gender-based violence
services for Muslim women, enhancing coordination between Muslim-serving and mainstream
institutions, and creating sustainable, publicly accessible resources that bridge research with lived
community experience.
