Abstract

This report presents findings from Stage III of a national project examining the extent and nature of, and responses to, TFA within the Australian community. Consistent with the current Australian policy focus of the National Plan to Reduce Violence Against Women and their Children 2010–2022 (Council of Australian Governments, 2011), the project is particularly concerned with deepening understanding of the gendered nature of TFA victimisation and perpetration. By “gendered nature”, we refer to the ways in which the extent of differing types of abuse, the impacts on victims and survivors, and relationships in which TFA occurs can vary according to the gender of the victim and survivor and/or perpetrator.
