About me

Duncan McPhee is a socio-legal scholar with expertise in the area of sexual violence and Gender-Based Violence (GBV). With a multi-disciplinary background in law and the social sciences, Duncan has produced a range of works that explore the criminal justice response to sexual assault, rape and domestic violence.

He is currently engaged in a number of research projects, including an examination of sports environments and sporting cultures and their relationship to issues around consent, disclosure and safeguarding (UWE Connecting Research Project Grant) and work exploring features of sexual assault cases reported to the police by sex workers.
