Abstract

This paper considers the issue of Indigenous women and violence - both the violence they perpetrate and the violence they experience. As will be discussed further below, however, most Indigenous women who offend are themselves victims, and the nexus between offending and victimisation must therefore be considered. The paper also examines current and future responses to this violence and victimisation.

Keywords: Indigenous, women, violence, victimisation, offending
