Description du projet
Identifier les lacunes policières en matière de violence domestique
La violence domestique reste un problème omniprésent en dépit de l’abondance des recherches et des recommandations politiques. La mise en œuvre de stratégies de prévention et d’intervention efficaces est souvent insuffisante. Dans ce contexte, le projet IMPRODOVA, financé par l’UE, entend combler le fossé qui existe entre les connaissances et les pratiques en matière de lutte contre la violence domestique. Plus précisément, le projet étudiera les raisons pour lesquelles la violence domestique est souvent considérée comme un problème peu prioritaire et pourquoi les taux de signalement par les victimes restent peu élevés. Le projet entend mener des entretiens avec la police et observer le travail sur le terrain, afin d’identifier les facteurs humains qui définissent une réponse efficace et les meilleures pratiques en matière de travail policier. La recherche s’étendra également aux paramètres d’évaluation des risques et à la collaboration entre la police et les médecins.
Objectif
In Europe and other Western societies, research findings and policy documents have unearthed an overabundance of recommendations on domestic violence. In theory, we know very well how we should prevent, detect and mitigate domestic violence. However in daily practice this is often not taken into account. Also, there is less research on the factors that escalate family and partner conflict into high impact domestic violence. IMPRODOVA will focus on the police side of the gap between what we know and what we do, but will also include the aspect of police co-operation with other first responders. Why, in practical police work, is domestic violence often regarded as a low priority problem? Why is the reporting rate by victims low? What are the human factors that define effective response and best practice police work in networks of other first line responders, e.g. health practitioners, schools, and youth services?
Police frontline responder interviews expanded by fieldwork observation data will be weighed against intermediate and top police leadership expertise collected in the partner LEA's. The influence of human factor variables in frontline operations will be investigated, and the parameters of risk assessment, also of medical practitioners, will be established and compared. Training and study materials with a special focus on scenario-based learning modules will be designed to address the barriers to better domestic violence policing. IMPRODOVA will reach out across the boundaries of first and other relevant responders by disseminating the field research findings to other professionals and representatives of domestic violence prevention and mitigation. A special focus will be laid on the media presentation of domestic violence, since media play an important role how HIDV and its victims are perceived in public. IMPROVODA will produce a set of sustainable products for training and inter-professional communication to reduce DV prevalence and re-victimization.
