Domestic & Family Violence and Border-related Harm
Status: Ongoing
Project Team: Professor Marie Segrave
Funder: ARC Future Fellowship scheme (FT210100537)
Synopsis
This project aims to explore how Australia's migration system intersects with the experience of domestic and family violence for temporary visa holders. This Future Fellowship is founded on the need for a comprehensive examination of how DFV may be understood as border-related harm, produced via the Australian migration system.
The project expects to generate new knowledge about connections between migration systems and domestic and family violence. This should provide significant benefits by laying the ground for reform and recommendations to support policy makers and stakeholders more broadly to create better conditions for women’s safety.
