dc.description.abstractThere is a lack of interpretive research in the domestic violence literature and, in particular, within an ethnocultural context. Interviews were held with four Filipina women in Calgary, Alberta who had previously been in violent relationships, in combination with a referral group of key informants with leadership and knowledge of community issues related to domestic violence. By adopting a phenomenological approach to the research, it was hoped that new understandings of what is identified in clinical paradigms as the “risk” and “protective” factors associated with domestic violence would be unearthed. This research study is at once exploratory and informative and is intended to contribute to the development of a province-wide plan to address and prevent domestic violence through the Brenda Strafford Chair in the Prevention of Domestic Violence at the Faculty of Social Work, University of Calgary.en_US

dc.description.sponsorshipWe gratefully acknowledge our research participants, women and men from the Filipino Community in Calgary, who bravely stepped forward to share their stories and insights with us. Without you, this research would not be possible. This project was made possible through funding from the Centre for Criminology and Justice Research (CCJR), which contributes independently produced, evidence-based research in the study of criminal and social justice issues and the promotion of safe communities.en_US
