“As it happens”: Co-creating knowledge for a gender-based safety audit with women experiencing long-term homelessness
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In this paper, we explore an intersectional feminist approach to co-creating knowledge on safety with women and gender-diverse people experiencing long-term, street-based homelessness in Hamilton, Ontario. Using a gender-based safety audit (GBSA) framework, our project team of front-line social service providers, academic researchers, and community co-leads collaborated to engage participants in arts-based workshops to co-produce a zine focused on the community’s perceptions of safety and recommendations for action. Drawing from our own experiences as well as existing literature on the lived realities of women and gender-diverse people experiencing homelessness, our paper critically reflects on the barriers and ethical considerations inherent in knowledge co-creation projects with highly marginalized communities. By foregrounding the perspectives and recommendations of those directly affected by gender-based homelessness, our work also contributes to scholarship on feminist knowledge co-creation methodologies. Through reflexive dialogues within our project team, we highlight the transformative potential of arts-based knowledge co-creation projects that engage marginalized communities in advocating for social change.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
