Access to Justice for Women Survivors of Violence A Comparative Study of Women's Police Stations in Latin America by Nadine Jubb
A group of researchers and activists from Canada, the US and Latin America first got together in 2001 to discuss and analyze women’s police stations (WPS) in the region. Since then the network has grown and we have shared studies regarding violence against women and the work and impact of the women’s police stations.

Michele attended high school in rural Jamaica and completed her undergraduate and graduate work at the University of the West Indies before moving to the United States to pursue further graduate work. At the University of the West Indies, she specialized in history and obtained a Masters of Philosophy (History) at the graduate level. Eager to continue her graduate work, she attended Johns Hopkins University, where she pursued an MA and PhD in history. After completing her PhD, Michele returned to the University of the West Indies as a Lecturer.
In
2002, Michele moved to Canada and started working in York’s History
Department, and in 2006, she began her term as Coordinator of York’s
Latin American and Caribbean Studies Program (LACS).
York students benefit a great deal from Michele’s role as
Coordinator of the LACS program, as she is known for developing strong
relationships with her students and demonstrating a keen interest in
their work. Michele
is recognized as a supportive professor who encourages her students to
explore their research interests while sharing her knowledge of the
field. Her passion for
Caribbean history is evident in the enthusiasm and effort Michele brings
to her lectures. In the
past, Michele has engaged and enlightened her students in courses such
as “African Canadian History”; “History of the Caribbean:
Colonialism to Independence”; “History of Popular Culture in the
U.S.A”; and “In Slavery and Freedom: Blacks in the Americas.” In
2005, the university recognized Michele’s commitment and contribution
to student development at York, awarding her the Dean’s Award for
Teaching in the Faculty of Arts. Presently,
Michele is working on a research project called “Female Domestic
Servants and their Employers in Jamaica, 1920-1970.”
In this project, she explores the social history of domestic
servants in 20th century Jamaica, with attention to the relationship
between the servants and the families that they serve.
This research requires her to conduct interviews with elderly
women and to examine photographs and newspaper advertisements.
Tracing
the relationship between domestic servants and their families is often
difficult. Although
domestic work constitutes a large employment sector for Jamaican women,
these women usually do not leave documents behind and are ambivalent
about their experiences in the households, while former employers are
indirect about a number of issues, including the wages that they paid.
However, Michele’s personal connection to Jamaica and Jamaican
culture has helped her to address the complexity of this topic. Michele’s interest in female domestic servants is not limited to Jamaica. She has also explored the representation of domestic servants on American television. In the future, Michele hopes to contribute to work that examines the experience of migrants in Canada, a country where her commitment to scholarship and teaching has been well-received by colleagues and students alike. In 2006, she joined the CERLAC Executive, and CERLAC is proud and delighted to have such a promising scholar and teacher contributing to the Centre.
Women's Police Stations in Latin America
(article continues from the top of the page)
The general objective of the current two-year research project is to carry out a comparative study on the WPS regarding how they contribute to women survivors’ access to justice and exercise of their rights. It is being conducted in countries with the most experience in this area: Brazil, Ecuador, Nicaragua, and Peru.
CERLAC
has been actively involved in the project since the beginning. The other
current institutional partners are: the Centre for Social Planning and
Studies (CEPLAES, Ecuador), InterCambios/PATH (Nicaragua), the Gender
Studies Department of the State University of Campinas (PAGU-UNICAMP,
Brazil), the Flora Tristan Women’s Centre, and the Manuela Ramos
Movement (Peru). The International Development Research Centre (IDRC) is
the main funder.
The research addresses the services provided by the WPS and their links with the judicial system, the women’s movement, and other service providers from the perspective of women in situations of violence. The research findings will be used to improve public policy by making proposals and engaging national and regional stakeholders.

The
VIVA! project is alive and well…and living in five countries…
Supported by SSHRC since 2004, the transnational collaborative research
project involves eight partners, NGOs, and progressive pockets of
universities in Panama, Nicaragua, Mexico, the United States, and
Canada. CERLAC
Fellow Deborah Barndt has coordinated the project, and several part-time
York faculty and graduate students—Diane Roberts, Heather Hermant,
Maggie Hutcheson, Laura Reinsborough and Marisol Ayala—have been
involved in projects, internships, translation work, websites, memorias,
articles, and video productions. Glendon
College’s Spanish translation class, under the guidance of María
Constanza Guzmán, has also contributed to VIVA! translations. VIVA!
has been built around two major objectives: a localized one that has
encouraged each partner to carry out participatory action research with
a community arts project, where evaluating and documenting its creative
tensions and links to social movements in diasporic and Indigenous
contexts is key; and a transnational objective, which involves bringing
together partners and project participants for annual gatherings.
Each gathering has included young participants from the projects
and has introduced collaborators to local practice. Our
theoretical frameworks have evolved from focusing on the creative
tensions of community arts to a spiral understanding of the links
between historical cultural recovery and social movement-building, to an
exchange of meanings and strategies for the decolonization of art,
education, and research. Other
central features of our collaboration have been a commitment to
bilingualism, to intergenerational dialogue, and to alternative ways of
knowing and communicating knowledge. Our
Mexican partners at the Universidad de la Tierra hosted the most recent
official meeting. UniTierra
is a Zapatista-affiliated university for Indigenous students in Chiapas
and is a model of sustainability; the campus is built by the students
from natural materials, includes its own farm that feeds the students,
and offers training in vernacular trades framed by Indigenous thought. Each
of the eight projects brought to this meeting short videos and draft
chapters for a bilingual book (with a DVD), which we are now preparing
for publication in Spanish and English. Several of us presented our work and an overview video at the
Latin American Studies Association (LASA) Congress in Montreal in
September 2007. More
importantly, the conversations between us have deepened, the connections
have broadened, and the network is expanding beyond the SSHRC project,
with plans to meet in Nicaragua in 2008 and to continue the exchange
under leadership from the South. Viva VIVA!

Ellie Perkins first traveled to Brazil after earning her undergraduate degree at the Woodrow Wilson School at Princeton University in 1978. She moved to Toronto from Washington D.C. in 1982 to pursue her Masters and PhD in the Political Economy of Economic Development at the University of Toronto. She then followed her interest in former Portuguese colonies to Mozambique, where she taught from 1990–91. When she returned to Canada, Ellie worked at the Ontario Ministry of Environment before accepting a position at York University’s Faculty of Environmental Studies (FES) in 1993, where she is an Associate Professor. At FES, Ellie has pursued her research interests in Brazil, Portuguese Africa, feminist ecological economics, and women and development.
Ellie’s involvement with CERLAC has grown through her involvement in the York/CERLAC Brazilian Studies Seminar, a series of seminars presented by York graduate students, faculty, and visiting speakers who are involved in Brazil-related research (see p.28). Ellie is also known for her role as the Canadian Project Director of the Brazil-Canada Sisters Watershed Project.
This project aims to build capacity for local activists and
non-governmental organizations through collaborative engagement in needs
assessments, training, and interest building. The project also provides
opportunities for Brazilian and Canadian students to participate in
academic exchanges. The
project is scheduled to end in 2008, and Ellie is currently seeking
additional funding to continue collaborating with her partners in Brazil
and possibly to extend the work to Mozambique and South Africa.
Central to Ellie’s work is her commitment to gender equity. She highlights the importance of the contributions of feminist theory to ecological economy, resource management, and governance issues. Ellie is currently working on a paper that addresses the interconnections between feminist contributions to economic theory and feminist contributions to the idea of sustainability, a subject she says is under-researched.
Beyond
her research and involvement in the Sisters Watershed Project, Ellie
plays an important role as supervisor to many students, including many
in CERLAC’s Diploma Program. Claudia De Simone, a York graduate student and exchange
student with the Sisters Watershed Project, remarks that Ellie
“continually demonstrates the essential qualities of an exceptional
supervisor―she is supportive, knowledgeable, inquisitive, and
urges me to look at my work in new ways.
She has contributed greatly to my development as a graduate
student and as a person.” Ellie hopes to be a part of a welcoming environment for
Brazilian and other students at York and to reciprocate the warmth with
which she has been received in Brazil.
Throughout her career, Ellie has been challenged by a lack of female role models who were balancing teaching, service in the community, research, family, and other interpersonal connections. She feels fortunate to be at York where others are committed to working in the community as well as at the university. Ellie’s colleague Andrea Moraes sums up Ellie’s contributions: “Ellie for me is an example to be followed, not only professionally but as a whole person. [Not only is she] a dedicated and engaged professor, researcher and director―she is also a very lively woman, a mother, a neighbour, a friend, an adventurer, a searcher, and much more.” Ellie’s students and colleagues are fortunate to have in her a role model who is dedicated to both her research and her engagement with the communities in which she works.

The
authors explore teachers’ perspectives on race and ethno-cultural
equity and identify potential solutions for pressing social justice and
diversity issues facing educators in contemporary Canadian schools and
society. The book draws on experience in the pioneering Urban Diversity
Teacher Education model in York’s Faculty of Education and links the
sensitive issues of race, ethnicity, and culture to broader equity,
social justice, and diversity themes in Canadian society and
institutions. Congratulations Patrick on this well-deserved honour!
