At #ECDV2023 this morning, our session explores safety, risk & homicide in the context of #tech-facilitated #domesticviolence, with Demelza Dana Cuomo Katy Brookfield I'll present Australian Research Council DECRA research on 'justice' responses & outline a #DigitalCoerciveControl toolkit

Im Vorfeld von #Femizid spielt offenbar #DigitaleGewalt (technology facilitated abuse) oft eine markante Rolle - aber sie wird bei Untersuchungen oft nicht systematisch erfasst und als Risikofaktor häufig übersehen, zeigt die aktuelle Forschung von Demelza auf der #ECDV2023

The Commissioner has been listening to communities & victims, and improving key areas like rape charging rates. But more must be done to invest in officers' training and support - both for investigations and victim care - and to root out bad officers. standard.co.uk/news/london/me…

A shame about clashing talk times, but so exciting to see fellow researchers as intrigued by this work as I am! Leonie Tanczer (@[email protected]) and the incredible undertaking of defining tech abuse beyond the barriers of language, towards a global approach. #GenderandTech UCL Computer Science #techabuse @DVA

Fascinating talks Bridget Harris Demelza Katy Brookfield on #technology #DomesticAbuse & #homicide My takeaways: 1) who & how of #data creation matter 2) intention behind tech use 🔑 to ID care vs control 3) wielding our godlike tech only getting worse for #VAWG #ECDV2023

Catching up on my #ECDV2023 tweeting (X-ing?) at the airport. Thrilled to have chaired this fantastic panel in Safety, Risk, and Homicide in tech-enabled DV. Bridget Harris , Katy Brookfield , Demelza and Dana Cuomo’s work pioneers key considerations for policy & practice.

1k messages and voicemails in a month is #stalking . It is vital that these behaviours are recognised and responded to. We have been repeatedly told since Alice's murder that the army has taken steps to improve. Clearly there is more work to be done. bbc.co.uk/news/uk-669821…

Our new Women's Aid report shows the clear link between online misogynistic (*Andrew Tate*) content and attitudes towards domestic abuse for children and young people. This is serious and needs to be understood and addressed. Please read and share. bit.ly/3tuH4B1

Yesterday Justice Secretary Alex Chalk KC Ministry of Justice brought into force reforms to domestic homicide sentencing recommended by the Wade Review. These important changes will ensure coercive control is better understood in sentencing, helping to bring perpetrators to justice.

Today we have released our report examining the merits & limits of domestic violence disclosure schemes in Australia & NZ. Our research suggests domestic violence disclosure schemes may not improve safety for victim-survivors of intimate partner violence. Grateful to the scheme

It's so important to reflect on what we have learnt about the role of family and others who knew a victim, including what works and what doesn't. This research by Advocacy After Fatal Domestic Abuse and WWIN FINDAWAY is a valuable contribution to that.

We joined our sector colleagues in a letter to the Secretary of State for Justice, outlining our concerns about the prison early release scheme, calling for it not to include all perpetrators of domestic abuse. Read the letter and our full statement here: bit.ly/4bY7kEH

Looking forward to meeting my lovely colleagues from The Cyber Helpline at Infosecurity Europe, and attending the #womenincyber event tomorrow!

Australian #researchers navigating sensitive topics or fragile contexts are at risk of secondary stress and vicarious #trauma. Few resources exist but recently some colleagues & I established a support & advocacy network that researchers may find helpful! linkedin.com/company/aasert…

The Suzy Lamplugh Trust is working alongside SignVideo by Sorenson to provide a BSL interpreter for advice and support with stalking. If you are a deaf person and have been a victim of #stalking, you can now videocall Stalking Helpline UK to access the support you need. #StalkingAwareness
