Sexual Violence at the Antarctic Base: What We Know and What We Can Do
In a groundbreaking new study published this week in Nature, researchers from the University of Cambridge have found evidence that suggests a significant link between the prevalence of sexual violence at a base in Antarctica and local environmental stresses. The team found that as temperatures increased and sea ice melted, so too did instances of sexual violence. The findings are significant because they suggest that climate change could have serious implications for the safety of people living in polar regions.
