This event has already taken place.

Join Social Work's Justice Services colleagues for a discussion on how to improve knowledge and practice in working with those who display stalking behaviours and their victims. 

Every stalking case is different, however, very often perpetrators use similar tactics driven by comparable motives. The seminar aims to explore tactics, techniques, and motives employed by many stalking perpetrators. 

This course is suitable for anyone who might provide support to a client who is experiencing stalking.

About stalking

According to the self-completion elements of the 2019-20 Scottish Crime and Justice Survey (SCJS), almost one-in eight adults (11.8%) experienced at least one type of stalking and harassment. Action Against Stalking carried out a survey in 2022 reporting that nearly one in four women living in Scotland has been a victim of stalking, compared to 1 in 7 men reporting being stalked.
