The Voices Against Violence Research Project was cross-sectoral, undertaken between WDV, OPA and DVRCV. The project investigated the circumstances of women with disabilities of any kind (including physical disabilities, sensory disabilities, mental ill health and cognitive impairments) who have experienced violence. This paper is one of a series of publications for the Voices Against Violence Research Project. It outlines the findings of interviews with staff and volunteers from OPA's major program areas. It provides an insight to the systemic issues facing women with cognitive impairments and mental ill health who have experienced violence, or who are at risk of experiencing violence. While this paper deals only with women with cognitive impairments and mental ill health, the other papers for this research project address the systemic issues for women with disabilities more generally.

The Voices Against Violence Research Project was cross-sectoral, undertaken between WDV, OPA and DVRCV. The project investigated the circumstances of women with disabilities of any kind (including physical disabilities, sensory disabilities, mental ill health and cognitive impairments) who have experienced violence. This paper is one of a series of publications for the Voices Against Violence Research Project. This paper examines the nature and extent of violence against women with disabilities and the barriers to services faced by women with disabilities who have experienced violence. It also explores promising initiatives being run in Victoria that may help repair the harm and prevent the injustice of violence in the first place. The intersections of gender, violence, disability and structural disadvantage are central to understanding violence against women with disabilities. On all measures of social and economic participation, people with disabilities are significantly disadvantaged and can experience the violation of their human rights. This is particularly acute for women with disabilities due to gender discrimination, heightened by the risks of poverty and violence. This paper builds on work undertaken by WDV, OPA and DVRCV and draws on recent research on violence against women with disabilities in order to highlight the need for Victoria?s disability sector to better understand the gendered dynamic of violence and for the family violence?sexual assault sector (including criminal justice services) to better understand disability-based violence. It advocates for sustained, multi-sectoral engagement across Victoria?s human and justice services to support prevention initiatives and improved identification of, and responses to, women with disabilities who experience violence regardless of whether they live in the community or in institutions. This work is based on the critical need to give attention to gender and disability and other layers of disadvantage when analysing, preventing and responding to violence. Without this multi-layered focus, women with disabilities will continue to live with an increased risk of experiencing violence and experiencing barriers to justice and community services.

Women have experienced significant changes in various spheres of their lives during the last decades as Bangladesh made economic progress. Yet women’s economic engagement and empowerment are subdued, as they cannot make sufficient choices for themselves. This book provides a comprehensive analysis of the economic developments in gender equality in Bangladesh. Through examining women’s participation in the labour force, ownership and control of household assets, use and control of financial assets, and opportunities for entrepreneurship, the authors have made concrete recommendations to overcome challenges that lie ahead for women’s economic empowerment. This book is an important contribution to the knowledge on interventions required by the policy makers and broader stakeholders towards narrowing gender gaps. --Fahmida Khatun, PhD, Executive Director, Centre for Policy Dialogue (CPD), Bangladesh The women’s story is central to Bangladesh’s economic and social transformation. There is an urgent need to deepen researched understanding of the multidimensional pathways of women’s economic empowerment and extent of real progress made. Voices to Choices is an important contribution to this story. Surely, the journey of women’s economic empowerment remains a long and challenging one. Realizing the full benefits of new opportunities is often hampered by both new and entrenched insecurities. The task is as much one of empowering women’s agency as of dismantling barriers. The responsibility is as much women’s as society’s. --Hossain Zillur Rahman, PhD, Executive Chairman, Power and Participation Research Centre (PPRC) This book provides critical insights and is timely, as it outlines how girls and women in Bangladesh have gained more opportunities in labor force participation, control over household and financial assets, as well as greater prospects for entrepreneurship. The findings will greatly contribute to future policy and planning for government and key stakeholders working to advance women’s economic empowerment in the country. --Sabina Faiz Rashid, PhD, Dean and Professor, BRAC James P.

Though interpersonal violence is widely studied, much less has been done to understand structural violence, the often-invisible patterns of inequality that reproduce social relations of exclusion and marginalization through ideologies, policies, stigmas, and discourses attendant to gender, race, class, and other markers of social identity. Structural violence normalizes experiences like poverty, ableism, sexual harassment, racism, and colonialism, and erases their social and political origins. The legal structures that provide impunity for those who exploit youth are also part of structural violence’s machinery. Working with Indigenous, queer, immigrant and homeless youth across Canada, this five-year Youth-based Participatory Action Research project used art to explore the many ways that structural violence harms youth, destroying hope, optimism, a sense of belonging and a connection to civil society. However, recognizing that youth are not merely victims, Everyday Violence in the Lives of Youth also examines the various ways youth respond to and resist this violence to preserve their dignity, well-being and inclusion in society.

In order to address major social policy problems, governments need to break down sectoral barriers and create better working relationships between practitioners, policymakers and researchers. Currently, major blockages exist, and stereotypes abound. Academics are seen as out-of-touch and unresponsive, policymakers are perceived to be justifying policy decisions, and the community sector seeks more funding without demonstrating efficacy. These stereotypes are born out of a lack of understanding of the work and practices that exist across these three sectors. Drawing on ground-breaking research and partnerships, with contributions from senior public servants, this book explores the competing demands of different actors involved in policy change. It challenges current debates, assumptions and reflects a unique diversity of experiences. Combined with differing theoretical perspectives, it provides a uniquely practical insight for those seeking to influence public policy. This innovative text provides essential reading for community sector practitioners, academics and advanced level students in public policy, social policy and public administration, as well as for public service professionals.
