520 _aThis report aims to provide the UN CRC with an understanding of the situation for children affected by FV/SV in Aotearoa. We discuss a range of issues identified by CRC and how practices and decisions of the NZ Family Court (NZFC) result in breaches of these children’s rights. Women and children have reported to Backbone that when they seek the NZFC’s protection, the interventions and decisions place them and their children in more, rather than less, danger. Recommendations are included to effectively uphold children’s right to be free of violence, to have their views respected and their best interests, health and welfare prioritised. The experience of FV/SV in NZ is influenced by gender and culture. Therefore, the impact of NZFC dysfunction and bias is felt heavily and disproportionately by women and in particular wāhine Māori and other women at increased risk of violence such as disabled women.
