It considers: critical writing, analysis and representation by Aboriginal women on family and domestic violence; literature on the evolution of responses to Aboriginal women experiencing family and domestic violence; and participatory research methods and how they can further open the ground for Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal women to debate ways of challenging violence and enable Aboriginal women to live violence-free. As a critical review, the paper highlights problems in using ideas of “effectiveness” and “success” to drive objectives in service delivery; and seeks to re-centre aspirations for empowerment alongside those for safety.
