Accessing the family violence provision: enhancing migrant women’s safety

该项目旨在调查《家庭暴力条款》（1994年《移民条例》）的运作情况，该条款旨在为因家庭暴力而关系破裂的持临时签证的妇女提供安全网。该项目预计将产生关于认识和应用程序和成果的新知识。这将是首次采用多方法研究该条文的运作情况。这些成果将使伙伴组织和向移徙妇女提供支助的国家利益攸关方直接受益。预计该项目将加强对遭受家庭暴力的妇女的支助，而这项规定正是为这些妇女设计的。

This project aims to investigate the operation of the Family Violence Provision (Migration Regulations (Clth) 1994), designed to act as a safety net for women on temporary visas whose relationships break down due to family violence. The project expects to generate new knowledge about awareness and application processes and outcomes. Using a multi-method approach this will be the first study to examine the operation of the Provision. The outcomes will offer direct benefit to the Partner Organisations, and to national stakeholders providing support to migrant women. The project is expected to strengthen support for women who have experienced family violence for whom this provision was designed.
