The University of Wollongong (UOW) has announced a funded PhD scholarship opportunity focused on gender-based violence in the context of work, with particular emphasis on reporting systems, help-seeking behaviour, and access to justice. The interdisciplinary project aims to explore how workplace structures and policies influence victims' decisions to report incidents and seek support.
According to the UOW website, the scholarship covers tuition fees and provides a living allowance for up to three and a half years. The successful candidate will work under the supervision of Dr. Jane Doe and Professor John Smith from the Faculty of Business and Law. The research is expected to contribute to policy recommendations for improving workplace responses to gender-based violence.
Applications are open until August 31, 2026, and are open to domestic and international candidates. Applicants must have a strong academic background in social sciences, law, or a related field. The project aligns with UOW's commitment to addressing gender inequality and promoting safe work environments.
