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 .

Zika was framed globally as a ‘crisis’ with a narrative demonstrating a paternalistic approach to policymaking and failing to take local contexts into consideration. This chapter examines structural and gender-based violence in juxtaposition to the framing of Zika as a global health crisis at the local level. Despite being invisibilised by global health security and responsibilised by domestic governments, women most susceptible to the Zika outbreak, while providing for their children’s needs, were fighting everyday challenges of financial security, increasing community and gender violence, poverty, and state structural failures in provision of routine health, sanitation, and housing. Zika became just one of a string of individual security threats these women had to battle. This disjuncture needs to be exposed and counteracted, and the lived reality of those infected must be addressed to meaningfully respond to these health crisis events.

The Impact

Gender violence is a sociocultural and historical phenomenon that affects millions of people in the world and the victims can be women or men, although women prevail. Gender-based violence between couples is one of the types most studied due to the impact they have on the family and on the development of children. The cycle of gender violence suggests that mediation is not an effective tool in the secondary prevention of gender violence between couples through the resolution of their conflicts. The nature of gender-based violence demonstrates that behaviors and behaviors are learned, as well as gender roles and stereotypes. In the process of deconstruction of these learnings and in the construction of others, the mediation process is of vital utility.

The differences in the psychosocial and family adaptation of a group of minors derived to the Family Meeting Point of Almeria are analyzed, also the caretaking capacity of their parents, depending on whether they come from the Gender Violence Court (GVC) or Family Court (FC) and the level of family conflict reported by the minor and parents. We studied 15 families in two groups in the divorce process, one consisting of 8 children of families from GVC and another of 7 children of the FC. When analyzing the reported family conflict, most of the children have witnessed episodes of violence at home, 75% of the GVC. 42% of children under FC would change their visitation regime. We observed statistically significant differences in terms of this conflict in family and school maladjustment. It is discussed to assess the needs of the minor considering their preferences regarding the visitation regime to decide juridically and psychologically.

The problem of gender-based violence in Mexico has been increased considerably. Many social associations and governmental institutions have addressed this problem in different ways. In the context of computer science, some effort has been developed to deal with this problem through the use of machine learning approaches to strengthen the strategic decision making. In this work, a deep learning neural network application to identify gender-based violence on Twitter messages is presented. A total of 1,857,450 messages (generated in Mexico) were downloaded from Twitter: 61,604 of them were manually tagged by human volunteers as negative, positive or neutral messages, to serve as training and test data sets. Results presented in this paper show the effectiveness of deep neural network (about 80% of the area under the receiver operating characteristic) in detection of gender violence on Twitter messages. The main contribution of this investigation is that the data set was minimally pre-processed (as a difference versus most state-of-the-art approaches). Thus, the original messages were converted into a numerical vector in accordance to the frequency of word’s appearance and only adverbs, conjunctions and prepositions were deleted (which occur very frequently in text and we think that these words do not contribute to discriminatory messages on Twitter). Finally, this work contributes to dealing with gender violence in Mexico, which is an issue that needs to be faced immediately.

The movements for racial justice, health equity, and economic relief have been activated in the contentious and challenging climate of 2020, with COVID-19 and social protest. In this context, feminist scholars, anti-violence advocates, and transformative justice practitioners have renewed their call for substantive changes to all forms of gender-based violence. This article offers a genealogy of the battered women’s movement in the U.S. from the lived experiences of two longtime activists. These reflections offer an analysis of the political praxis which evolved over the past half century of the anti-violence movement, and which has foregrounded the current social, political, and ideological framing of gender-based violence today. We conclude with a view to the future, focusing on the possibilities for transformative justice and abolition feminism as a return to our radical roots and ancestral histories.

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.

O presente trabalho consiste em um estudo qualitativo das representações sociais de imigrantes venezuelanas na América do Sul no período de 2016 a 2019, a partir de manchetes de notícias divulgadas em jornais digitais brasileiros. O objetivo é verificar a ocorrência ou não de veiculações que constituam de forma explícita ou implícita uma violação à dignidade e aos direitos dessas mulheres, ao fomentar ou incitar a xenofobia e a violência de gênero na sociedade através de palavras, frases ou expressões capazes de provocar um aniquilamento simbólico. Para tanto, realizou-se um estudo bibliográfico e documental acerca das vulnerabilidades sociais presentes nos processos imigratórios contemporâneos, que foi consubstanciado com a análise de conteúdo (BARDIN, 2009), em abordagem qualitativa, de manchetes publicadas em jornais digitais brasileiros. A partir da análise realizada, foi possível inferir que estes veículos de comunicação vêm frequentemente descrevendo a migração venezuelana como um problema, mas em conotação negativa, sem o cuidado de descrição do contexto de forma mais clara e abrangente da questão a ser noticiada.   Xenofobia y violencia de género: un análisis de los titulares de las mujeres venezolanas en el periodismo web brasileño El presente trabajo consiste en un estudio cualitativo de las representaciones sociales de los inmigrantes venezolanos en América del Sur en el período de 2016 a 2019, a partir de titulares de noticias publicados en periódicos digitales brasileños. El objetivo es verificar la ocurrencia o no de colocaciones que constituyan explícita o implícitamente una violación a la dignidad y derechos de estas mujeres, al promover o incitar la xenofobia y la violencia de género en la sociedad a través de palabras, frases o expresiones capaces de provocar una aniquilación simbólica. Para ello, se realizó un estudio bibliográfico y documental sobre las vulnerabilidades sociales presentes en los procesos migratorios contemporáneos, el cual fue fundamentado con análisis de contenido (BARDIN, 2009), en un enfoque cualitativo, de titulares publicados en diarios digitales brasileños. Del análisis realizado, se pudo inferir que estos medios de comunicación han venido describiendo muchas veces la migración venezolana como un problema, pero en una connotación negativa, sin preocuparse por describir de manera más clara y completa el contexto del tema a reportar. Palabras clave: Derechos humanos de la mujer. La violencia de género. Xenofobia. Periodismo web.   Xenophobia and gender violence: an analysis of headings broadcasted in brazilian webjornalism on venezuelan women The present work consists of a qualitative study of the social representations of Venezuelan immigrants in South America in the period from 2016 to 2019, based on news headlines published in Brazilian digital newspapers. The objective is to verify the occurrence or not of placements that explicitly or implicitly constitute a violation of the dignity and rights of these women, by promoting or inciting xenophobia and gender violence in society through words, phrases or expressions capable of provoking a symbolic annihilation. To this end, a bibliographic and documentary study was carried out on the social vulnerabilities present in contemporary immigration processes, which was substantiated with content analysis (BARDIN, 2009), in a qualitative approach, of headlines published in Brazilian digital newspapers. From the analysis carried out, it was possible to infer that these media outlets have often been describing Venezuelan migration as a problem, but in a negative connotation, without taking care to describe the context more clearly and comprehensively of the issue to be reported.

The Covid-19 pandemic changed the world and accelerated processes that could have taken decades without a pandemic. In this paper, the authors discuss the public and government responses to the new normal, nowadays reality, and most importantly, the legal regulations that have been enacted in different countries in response to the challenges. The paper discusses in detail issues related to security measures, social distance, gender issues, abortion, education and student mobility, employment, and entrepreneurship. A pandemic that has survived more than a year needs to be addressed. The decision-makers made efforts to create a provision for the influenza virus after it became prominent in society. The intention is not to be pessimistic but to be optimistic enough to create provisions for the future. Countries are aiming to achieve their commitments to recover from the pandemic. A pandemic demands a legal response as well as a social response. The research paper aimed to divert the attention of the readers to the untouched aspects of the law that are related to emergency situations, including pandemics. In the paper, we discuss the paradox of the pandemic, lockdown, and post-lock- down situations, as well as protests/riots, gender-based violence, healthcare, and education topics related to the changes that have taken place due to the pandemic.
