Tackling violence against racially minoritised women and girls

这一项目建立在我们以前关于暴力侵害妇女和女孩的特殊形式以及警方对这类暴力行为的反应的研究的基础上，并将收集关于警察对少数族裔妇女和女孩实施这类暴力行为的新证据。它将与英格兰的三支警察部队建立新的伙伴关系并合并现有的伙伴关系，以实现以下主要目标：(A)记录种族占少数的社区报告暴力侵害儿童问题的现有模式；(B)确定与支持种族占少数的暴力侵害儿童受害者/幸存者有关的新的警务挑战和最佳做法；(C)加强警察调查技术、保障对策和多机构工作，以更有效地支持种族占少数的暴力侵害儿童受害者/幸存者，并防止此类暴力事件今后发生。我们将通过知识交流活动、培训和最佳做法指导，设计和传播这项研究的成果，为前线警察和警务政策提供信息，从而实现这些目标。我们的项目将在一系列领域促进警务知识的状况，包括关于特殊形式的暴力侵害儿童问题；关于特定社区面临的问题和需要，包括任何相关的社会文化背景；少数族裔妇女和女孩退出受害者支助的背景和动态；以及解决暴力侵害儿童和/或与少数族裔社区合作的最有效的警务技术/方法。通过这样做，该项目将改善英格兰及其他地区暴力和虐待的种族少数(潜在)受害者/幸存者的结果。它还将促进关于性别和种族交汇处的警务以及警务实践/政策的学术辩论。

This project builds upon our previous research on particular forms of violence against women and girls (VAWG), and on police responses to such violence, and will gather new evidence on the policing of such violence committed against racially minoritised women and girls. It will establish new partnerships and consolidate existing ones with three police forces in England to achieve the following key objectives: a) document existing patterns in the reporting of VAWG within racially minoritised communities; b) identify emerging policing challenges and best practice associated with supporting racially minoritised victims/survivors of VAWG; and c) enhance police investigative techniques, safeguarding responses and multi-agency working to more effectively support racially minoritised victims/survivors of VAWG and to prevent such violence from occurring in future. We will achieve these aims by designing and disseminating outputs from this research through knowledge-exchange activities, training and best practice guidance aimed at informing frontline police officers and policing policy. Our project will advance the state of policing knowledge in a range of domains, including on particular forms of VAWG; on the issues and needs facing specific communities, including any relevant socio-cultural contexts; on the contexts and dynamics of withdrawal of victim support by racially minoritised women and girls; and on the most effective policing techniques/approaches for tackling VAWG and/or working with racially minoritised communities. In doing so, this project will improve outcomes for racially minoritised (potential) victims/survivors of violence and abuse in England and beyond. It will also contribute to academic debates on policing at the intersection of gender and race, and on policing practice/policy.
