The briefing paper draws on Imkaan’s own communications work, as well as the
communications work of the BME ending VAWG sector and the diverse social justice activists and thinkers who together make up our collective ending VAWG movement. We do not attest to knowing a perfect or ‘right’ way to communicate about violence against Black and minoritised women and girls, but in this briefing we present methodologies of purpose and integrity that are rooted in an intersectional approach through fundamentally centring the voices, experiences, and demands of Black and minoritised survivors of violence.

As with our previous briefings, this is not a technical ‘how-to’ guide or an in-depth research piece. This paper has been written with a view to provoking thought and dialogue within and between organisations and individuals, with the hope that this will help to strengthen our work as a sector, and contribute to moving us closer to our vision of a safe and equal world.
