Exploratory and descriptive study based on quantitative and qualitative methods that analyze the phenomenon of violence against adolescents based on gender and generational categories. The data source was reports of violence from the Curitiba Protection Network from 2010 to 2012 and semi-structured interviews with 16 sheltered adolescents. Quantitative data were analyzed using SPSS software version 20.0 and the qualitative data were subjected to content analysis. The adolescents were victims of violence in the household and outside of the family environment, as victims or viewers of violence. The violence was experienced at home, mostly toward girls, with marked overtones of gender violence. More than indicating the magnitude of the issue, this study can give information to help qualify the assistance given to victimized people and address how to face this issue.

Introduction: Among the estimated 22.5 million stroke survivors in China, 78% of them require home care. Previous research has indicated that culture can have a significant impact on caregivers’ perceptions of the caregiving role. There is a dearth of research on stroke caregivers’ perceptions within the Chinese culture. Objective: To explore how Chinese culture influences the perceptions of the caregiving role among stroke caregivers. Methods: In this qualitative descriptive study, 14 stroke caregivers were recruited from a 1800-bed regional hospital in China. Caregivers were on average 58 years old (range 46-74), 78% female, 50% spouse-caregivers and 50% children-caregivers. Caregivers spent on average 14 hours per day (range 5-24) providing care. All were 1st time caregivers who had provided stroke caregiving < 12 months. Individual, semi-structured interviews were conducted. Qualitative content analysis was performed. Strategies to achieve trustworthiness include triangulation of the data in the analysis process, member checking and peer debriefing. Results: Three themes emerged from the interviews. (1) Caregiving is a natural expected part of life. All caregivers accepted caregiving for the sick family member as an expected part of life. This perception is deeply rooted in Chinese culture. (2) Caregiving is a culturally prescribed obligation. Spouse caregivers believe that it is their moral obligation to take care of their sick life partner. Female caregivers emphasized their position and role in the family to take up caregiving for sick relative. (3) Caregiving is an expression of reciprocal love within the immediate family. Tangible caregiving and support during adversity are viewed as expression of reciprocal love among family members. Particularly, the children-caregivers believed in the virtue of filial piety and perceived stroke caregiving as a means of repaying their parents. Conclusions: Our findings highlight an underlying acceptance and devotion of undertaking stroke caregiving within the Chinese culture. Researchers and clinicians that plan to develop an intervention to support Chinese stroke caregivers need to consider integrating these findings.

Nosso objetivo neste artigo, a partir de entrevistas e netnografia, é mostrar-lhes que a partir do âmbito religioso emergem coletivos cujas as vozes dissonantes não compactuam com a subjugação feminina implementada pela religião e denunciam em ambientes virtuais a violência praticada contra a mulher em ambientes domésticos ou eclesiais. Além de trabalharem voluntariamente instruindo e acolhendo vítimas de violência, é importante destacar que as Feministas Evangélicas, por nós pesquisadas, lutam em favor da legalização do aborto, pois entendem que esta é uma questão de saúde pública. Porém, mesmo lutando em favor dos direitos femininos, elas são ameaçadas por indivíduos que possuem ethos familista e visão conservadora de mundo, pois estes entendem que elas querem destruir a família. Palavras-chave: Feminismo; religião; violência de gênero; política.   Abstract This article aims to present, through interviews and netnography, collectives that emerge from the religious sphere, where dissonant voices do not agree with the female subjugation implemented by religion who denounces in virtual environments the violence against women in environments domestic or ecclesial. Besides volunteer work, instructing, and supporting victims of violence, the Evangelical Feminists group fight for abortion legalization, as they understand it as a public health issue. However, even when fighting for women's rights, they are threatened by individuals who have a familist ethos and a conservative worldview because they understand that they want to destroy the family. Keywords: Feminism; religion; gender violence; policy.   Resumen Nuestro objetivo en este artículo, a partir de entrevistas y netnografía, es mostrar que desde el ámbito religioso surgen colectivos cuyas voces disonantes no concuerdan con la subyugación femenina implementada por la religión y denuncian en entornos virtuales la violencia practicada contra las mujeres en los ambientes doméstico y/o eclesial. Además de trabajar voluntariamente en la instrucción y acogida de víctimas de violencia, es importante destacar que las Feministas Evangélicas que hemos investigado luchan por la legalización del aborto, pues entienden que este es un tema de salud pública. Sin embargo, incluso cuando luchan por los derechos de las mujeres, son amenazadas por individuos que tienen un espíritu familista y una cosmovisión conservadora porque entienden que quieren destruir a la familia.

La violencia de género (Ley Orgánica 1/2004), constituye un problema social grave, ya que atenta contra los Derechos Humanos de las víctimas: mujeres y sus hijos e hijas, además, en el ámbito familiar impide una convivencia sana, perjudicando notablemente el desarrollo evolutivo de los menores. La familia, que debería ser para estos chicos y chicas un ambiente adecuado de socialización, cuando existen episodios de este tipo de violencia, puede causar en ellos problemas graves de diversa índole. Ante ello, para una intervención más eficaz con estas personas, los profesionales de los distintos ámbitos sociales: Psicología, Trabajo Social, Educación, Sanitario, Fuerzas de Seguridad y otros, deberán actuar de manera coordinada, ya que es una problemática multidisciplinar. Con este trabajo se pretende, por un lado, visibilizar los sistemas de seguridad existentes en la actualidad en España, y por otro, proporcionar a los profesionales del ámbito de lo social antes descritos, que intervienen directamente con las víctimas de violencia de género, herramientas para que puedan informarles sobre estas medidas de seguridad, materia que les afecta considerablemente y, además, coadyuvaría a que se sientan más empoderadas para poder reclamar la asistencia que necesitan, al objeto de poder salir de la situación adversa en la que se encuentran. Gender violence (Organic Law 1/2004) constitutes a serious social problem, since it violates the Human Rights of the victims: women and their sons and daughters, in addition, in the family environment, prevents healthy coexistence, notably damaging the evolutionary development of minors. The family, which should be an adequate socialization environment for these boys and girls, when there are episodes of this type of violence, can cause serious problems of various kinds for them. Given this, for a more effective intervention with these people, professionals from the different social areas: Psychology, Social Work, Education, Health, Security Forces and others, must act in a coordinated way, since it is a multidisciplinary problem. This work aims, on the one hand, to make visible the security systems currently existing in Spain, and on the other, to provide the professionals in the social field described above, who intervene directly with victims of gender-based violence , tools so that they can inform them about these security measures, a matter that affects them considerably and, in addition, would help them feel more empowered to claim the assistance they need, in order to be able to get out of the adverse situation in which they find themselves .

ABSTRAKAnak merupakan anugerah yang diberikan Tuhan kepada manusia. Akan tetapi dalam perkembangannya anak seringkali menjadi korban kekerasan. Kekerasan terhadap anak mempunyai dampak yang sangat luas dan panjang. Anak korban kekerasan akan membawa trauma selama hidupnya. Di sisi lain korban kekerasan semasa kecil mempunyai potensi untuk menjadi pelaku pada masa yang akan datang sewaktu korban tersebut telah dewasa. Trauma yang luas dan panjang ini harus mendapatkan pelayanan secara komprehensif. Faktor penyebab terjadinya kekerasan terhadap anak adalah faktor internal dan faktor eksternal. Faktor internal adalah faktor yang berasal dari dalam keluarga. Sementara faktor eksternal adalah faktor yang terjadi diluar lingkungan keluarga. Penanganan terhadap anak korban kekerasan yang komprehensif adalah pengananan yang menyeluruh dan melibatkan berbagai pihak yang kompeten. Dengan demikian perlu adanya keterlibatan semua institusi baik itu institusi pemerintah maupun masyarakat dalam penanganan bagi anak korban kekerasan. Penanganan anak korban kekerasan juga harus memunyai payung kebijakan. Payung kebijakan ini tidak hanya bersifat nasional tetapi juga lebih spesifik dari daerah masing-masing. Pihak yang terlibat dalam penangannan anak korban kekerasan meliputi Dinas Sosial, Dinas Kesehatan, Dinas Pendidikan, Kepolisian, dan P2TP2A. Sementara dari pihak masyarakat adalah LSM yang concern terhadap anak korban kekerasan. Koordinasi natarinstitusi ini yang menjadi permasalahan.Peningkatan koordinasi menjadi hal yang harus segera dilakukan. Koordinasi antarinstitusi ini diperlukan agar dapat saling mendukung dalam penanganan anak korban kekerasan. Hal ini diperlukan karena ada keterbatasan dari masing-masing institusi jika melakukan penanganan sendiri-sendiri. ABSTRACT The child is a precious gift God has given man, but in reality children often become victims of violence.
