SUMMARY
Defining the data challenge for family, domestic and sexual violence is the foundational stage in forming an evidence base for family, domestic and sexual violence. It has noted the nature of these significant social and policy matters and the physical, psychological and financial impacts on individuals, their friends and family, the community and society.
This publication describes family, domestic and sexual violence, and provides a conceptual model for data to be collected in support of policy and service development to address these forms of violence. It has also discussed the challenges of definition and terminology and provides a basis to develop a nationally agreed definition for the creation of consistent and comparable data, relating to prevalence, incidence and victimisation.
The data elements required to describe and measure family, domestic and sexual violence are conceptualised and outlined as:
- Context
- Risk
- Incident/Experience
- Responses
- Impacts and Outcomes
- Programs, Research and Evaluation
