Sobre IBD

Surviving Domestic Violence follows a group of women on their journeys through and away from abusive relationships. Using a gendered lens, seven influential social dimensions are examined: power, emotion, children, home, economic resource, informal and community support. Struggling with domestic violence and poverty, we see women actively pursuing safety for themselves and their children. However, a gendered analysis of external structural contexts, as well as individual responses, reveals the constraints women face in achieving support to gain safety.
