Join us for the book launch of The Psychology of Honor Abuse, Violence, and Killings, which explores the complex and often misunderstood world of honour abuse.

Join us for the launch of Dr Roxanne Khan's groundbreaking book, The Psychology of Honor Abuse, Violence, and Killings.

This compelling work shines a light on the psychological roots of honour abuse. Dr Khan introduces a revolutionary three-phase model to understand perpetrator motivation and societal responses. It offers vital insights for professionals and advocates alike.

This is more than a book launch: it's a call to action.

Dr Khan will deliver a powerful reading during the launch. You will also be able to take part in an engaging Q&A session with the author.

You'll hear powerful testimonies from Payzee Mahmod and Shaheen Hashmat, activists and survivors who wrote the foreword and conclusion to the book.

You can purchase a copy of the book online. 100% of book royalties will be donated to IKWRO and Halo Project, organisations dedicated to combatting honour-based violence. Dr Khan will sign books on the day.

This book launch welcomes psychology professionals, activists and advocates, as well as anyone interested in combatting honour abuse.
