Where are Indigenous women in the sentencing of Indigenous offenders?

该项目旨在探讨土著妇女在澳大利亚法院的经验。对土著被告的法律的判决原则几乎完全是为土著男子制定的。关于这些原则是否适用于土著妇女的研究还不够。该项目对地方法院的判决意见、案件档案以及与土著女囚犯、法院工作人员和判决前记者的访谈进行了定性分析。它试图确定地方法院如何在判决法庭上陈述土著妇女的经历，如家庭暴力和家庭责任以及信息的质量。该项目的目的是确保土著妇女在法庭上的适当参与以及土著妇女罪犯的判决结果。

The project aims to explore the experience of Indigenous women in Australian courts. Legal sentencing principles for Indigenous defendants have been formulated almost exclusively with Indigenous men in mind. Insufficient research has been undertaken on whether these principles are applicable for Indigenous women. This project undertakes a qualitative analysis of local court sentencing remarks, case files and interviews with Indigenous women prisoners, court actors and pre-sentence reporters. It seeks to ascertain how local courts represent Indigenous women's experiences such as family violence and family responsibilities and the quality of information before sentencing courts. The project's aim is to ensure appropriate engagement with Indigenous women in courts and sentencing outcomes for Indigenous women offenders.
