In Australia in 2018–19, intimate partner homicides accounted for 21 per cent of all homicides and for 62 per cent of all domestic homicides (Bricknell & Doherty, 2021).1 A significant proportion of domestic homicides occurs in a context of domestic and family violence, meaning there is an identifiable
history of abuse between the parties that precedes the fatal episode (Australian Domestic and Family Violence Death Review Network, 2018).
The Australian Domestic and Family Violence Death Review Network (the Network) was established in 2011 to analyse and improve knowledge about deaths that occur in a context of domestic and family violence, and to share findings and recommendations across jurisdictions in order to improve the response system and thereby prevent future deaths. Under this mandate, the Network developed a first-stage National Minimum Dataset (NMDS) to examine national trends and patterns with respect to intimate partner homicides preceded by a reported or anecdotal history of domestic and family violence (IPV homicides).2 In 2018, the Network published the inaugural Australian Domestic and Family Violence Death Review Network data report which presented NMDS data for IPV homicides occurring between July 2010 and June 2014.
In 2020, Australia’s National Research Organisation for Women’s Safety (ANROWS) was funded to work in partnership with the Network to produce the second edition of
the report. This report updates and builds on the data presented in the 2018 report, providing data findings from the NMDS on IPV homicides from July 2010 to June 2018.
Intimate partner homicides where there was no identifiable history of domestic and family violence do not form part of this dataset (From the Executive summary). Record #7528
