How large scale technology programs have contributed to the prevention of domestic violence internationally
Abstract
Ten years ago Spain took a stand against domestic violence. In launching a technology program that was at that time the first of its kind worldwide, they forged a path that many other countries are now following.
Their utilization of bilateral Electronic Monitoring to prevent incidents of Domestic Violence has proven to be a great success. The Spanish program alone has seen over 10,000 couples monitored, having grown from 100 to now over 2,500 couples.
Monitored in real-time:
- Victims and their children are released from the confines of the restrictive zones of single unit monitoring, relieving them of the mental stress of fear and watchfulness and giving them the confidence to about freely.
- Aggressors’ movements are continuously watched and they avoid costly jail terms with their compliance, or noncompliance to their court orders reported in real time.
- Authorities now gain the evidence needed to enforce orders and execute their mandates in keeping their communities safe
How does this this technology work? How can it fit with State and Federal commitments to address Domestic and Family Violence? How will it contribute to Australia’s move to criminalize coercive control? And how can this technology be used to further the goals and aims of ANZ Mental Health Association and each of you as its members?
