Domestic and Family Violence and the Safety and Security of Migrant and Refugee Women

This brief provides an overview of the key findings relating to domestic and family violence from the report Migrant and Refugee Women in Australia: The Safety and Security Study by Monash University. The key findings offer an important insight into migrant and refugee women’s experiences of and attitudes towards domestic and family violence, issues that have been under explored in existing literature. As migrant and refugee women are currently a national priority in the context of domestic and family violence, capturing quantitative data with this specificity of focus is of critical importance.
