To address all types of femicide, we should consider other sources of gender-based violence, including not only current and former intimate partners but also family members, such as a father, brother, or son, reader says
SooToday received this letter from a concerned reader about the recent violence against women happening across Algoma and Ontario.
In order to ensure all types of femicide are addressed within violence intervention and prevention initiatives, it will be imperative that these initiatives consider the multiple sources of gender-based violence, including not only current and former intimate partners but also family members such as a father, brother, son or nephew, as well as other known relationships such as a landlord or co-worker.
"We can change the outcomes," the release states. "For over 20 years, homicide death reviews have provided recommendations that can move us toward prevention. It is time to review our progress and invest in the evidence to see stronger social returns. There are survivors, experts and advocates in every community that must be listened to."
There was a total of 86 recommendations for change made, speaking to oversight and accountability, system approaches, collaboration and communication, funding, education and training, measures addressing perpetrators of Intimate Partner Violence, intervention and safety.
