Resumo Este estudo teve como objetivo caracterizar a produção científica de artigos empíricos sobre casas-abrigo e redes sociais no contexto da violência contra a mulher. Buscaram-se artigos publicados entre 2004 e 2015, no Portal de Periódicos da Capes. Os descritores utilizados foram “shelter” e “social networks”, combinados com “violence against women” e suas variações: “domestic violence”/“gender violence”. De 1.536 estudos encontrados, 33 atenderam aos critérios de inclusão estabelecidos e foram organizados em duas categorias temáticas. Os resultados mostraram aspectos positivos da passagem das mulheres pela casa-abrigo, como o apoio oferecido pelos profissionais, além de aspectos dificultadores após a saída do local, principalmente em relação à geração de trabalho e renda. As redes sociais foram apontadas como um importante recurso no enfrentamento da violência, sobretudo pelo apoio da família de origem e das relações de amizade. Com base nos resultados e limitações apontados nos estudos, sugere-se o desenvolvimento de novas pesquisas que problematizem a interrelação das práticas profissionais realizadas em casas-abrigo e o acompanhamento das mulheres após saírem do local, assim como, aprofundar a análise dos vínculos afetivos que sustentam as funções desempenhadas pelos membros que constituem as redes sociais configuradas.

Domestic violence, particularly violence against women, is a scourge that has killed this year in Portugal more than twenty women.Our aim is to present a case study on the issue of gender violence on a 49 years old woman with a prior diagnosis of bipolar disorder and its (terrible) consequences.The multiple injuries sustained over several years “treated” the bipolar disorder. Apart from a frontal lesion on CT there is now a set of neurological and psychiatric symptoms compatible with a diagnosis of chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) “boxer's dementia” like.

State Budgets

Recent years have witnessed important changes in planning and budgetary processes in the country. The constitution of NITI Aayog in place of the Planning Commission, restructuring of the Union Budget following the Union Government’s acceptance of the 14th Finance Commission recommendations and measures undertaken for rationalisation of Centrally Sponsored Schemes have marked gender implications. They also have a bearing on public financing of government programmes in a range of sectors, including those meant to address violence against women. The analysis of schemes to address violence against women by state governments in Madhya Pradesh and Jharkhand presented in the chapter, reflects low priority towards the issue in the state budgets, indicating that the importance accorded to gender violence in policy discourse is yet to translate into budgetary priorities. The author concludes that budgetary dimensions of the state’s response to the issue require attention if we are to ensure a comprehensive response mechanism for women facing domestic violence.

Crime Incidence

The National Commission to Prevent and Eradicate Violence Against Women reports that gender violence alerts in Mexico have been declared in 19 states and 4 states are waiting to be declared in 2019. The crime incidence rate published by INEGI shows that for every 100 thousand inhabitants, more than 11 thousand have been victims of robbery or assault on the street or public transport. Various systems have been developed whose objective is to reduce insecurity rates through the use of applications on mobile devices, however it is not considered a natural activation, since everything is done through virtual user interfaces. The developed system consists of an App on the mobile device and a hardware with wireless communication via Bluetooth 4.0 (Bluetooth low energy consumption) and a panic button using wearable technology. The activation is carried out through a panic button located on the smart garment, which allows the location to be sent through social networks, so their impact in emergency situations is explored.

Critical Overview

This article aims to offer a critical overview of the Brazilian legal framework for confronting domestic violence against women. Intimate partner homicides are epidemic in Brazil: there are four deaths of women per day. In 2006, the Maria da Penha Law (MPL) introduced integrated polices and transformed criminal procedures to deal with the complexities of gender violence. Reforms included the establishment of The House of Brazilian Women, women-only police stations, specialised courts, intervention orders, interdisciplinary experts, and perpetrator programs. In 2015, a new law created the crime of femicide, designed to prevent ‘honor killings’ defenses in cases of intimate partner homicide and to avoid impunity. Despite law reform, structuring and articulating the network of services remains a challenge. The MPL led to great social change in Brazil regarding awareness of the violence against women, facilitating a broader discussion about gender equality.

Violent Acts

Violence appears in different forms and circumstances and involves distinct kinds of violent acts against children, women, elderly and other defenseless persons. This serious problem, which degrades women's integrity, is denoted by terms like domestic violence, gender violence and violence against women. Gender violence can appear as physical, psychological, sexual, economic violence, as well as violence at work. Violence against women committed by their intimate partners can be analyzed through the Ecological Model, which explains the close relation between individuals and their environment. Factors influencing people's behavior towards this violence should be analyzed with a view to establishing help programs.

Engaging Men

As ally movements become an increasingly prevalent element of social justice efforts, research is needed that illuminates effective strategies to initially engage members of privileged social groups in anti-oppression work. This study presents descriptive findings regarding ally engagement strategies and barriers from a qualitative study of a particular ally movement – male anti-violence against women activism. Twenty-seven men who recently initiated involvement in an organization or event dedicated to ending sexual or domestic violence were interviewed regarding their perceptions of effective approaches to reaching and engaging other men in anti-violence work. Participants viewed tailored engagement strategies that tap into existing social networks, that allow men to see themselves reflected in anti-violence movements, and that help men make personal, emotional connections to the issue of violence as most effective. Implications for engaging men in the project of ending violence against women, and for ally movements more generally are discussed.
