The Shiloh Project and its podcast shine a light on the stories and practices of religion that either contribute to or resist rape culture. Through conversations with scholars and practitioners, the podcast invites us all to think about ways that we can challenge and dismantle rape culture in our own communities. The Shiloh project is a collaboration between the universities of Sheffield, Leeds and Auckland and funded by AHRC.
