Welcome to the CRVE website!

The Centre de Recherche sur la violence faite aux enfants (research center of violence against children, CRVE) is dedicated to epidemiological and evaluative studies made on violence against children. Gathering a team of researchers, students and professionals, the CRVE aims to better understand the evolution of violence made against children, of victimization trajectories, of consequences on psychosocial development, as well as the improvement and adaptation of supporting programs. The two axes of research activity of the CRVE are as follows:

Axis 1-Epidemiological Research

This axis aims to contribute to the development of epidemiological knowledge on the types of violence within the various life contexts of children, as well as their impacts on their psychosocial evolution.

Axis 2-Evaluative Research
