Violence against women and children affects everybody. It impacts on the health, wellbeing and safety of a significant proportion of Australians throughout all states and territories and places an enormous burden on the nation’s economy across family and community services, health and hospitals, income-support and criminal justice systems.

EXTERNALLY-FUNDED RESEARCH PROJECTS

Women’s experiences of the family violence intervention order process across rural, regional and metropolitan Victoria from three different perspectives

This Ph.D research is focusing upon women’s experiences of the family violence intervention order process in Victoria.

The research is seeking to explore the differences between women’s experiences across rural, regional and metropolitan Victoria in order to explore what the differences between women’s experiences are and what can be done to improve the process for women.

The research is gathering experiences using an online anonymous survey and via interviews. The surveys consist of one survey for women who have gone through the intervention order process that takes approximately 30 minutes to complete and a 15 minute survey for community services workers regarding their experiences of supporting women.

Additionally, we are seeking women and community services workers to take part in an interview via phone, Skype or face to face so that we can gather valuable in-depth information regarding women’s experiences.
