related violence, burglary, missing people and dementia.
Cristiana Cardoso is Assistant Lecturer in Criminology at the School of
Psychological, Social and Behavioural Sciences at Coventry University.
She is currently studying towards her PhD at Birmingham City
University, in which she aims to examine how a primary and secondary
prevention approach (alike Dunkelfeld in Germany) for women and
men who committed (or are at risk of) sexual ofences against children
in the UK could help address protective factors successfully.
Stephanie Fohring is Lecturer in Criminology at Edinburgh Napier
University. Prior to beginning at Napier, Stephanie completed
a British Academy Post- Doctoral fellowship at the University of
Edinburgh, where she also completed her PhD. Stephanie’s research
surrounds victims of crime, and is primarily concerned with issues
surrounding victim labelling, psychological responses to victimisation,
and (non)involvement with the criminal justice system. Other
emerging areas of interest include vicarious or secondary trauma
and post- traumatic growth.
Gizem Guney is Teaching Fellow in Criminology and Criminal Justice
at the University of Portsmouth. Her PhD concentrated on the Council

Liverpool John Moores University. Stephanie’s research interests are
in the exploration and application of strengths-b ased approaches when
working with marginalised populations. Rather than fxate on the

vre
se move away from such behaviours and thus prevent further harm.
