What is it about?

While the complexity of interagency work in domestic violence is recognised, it is not well-understood. This paper sheds new light on this complexity, proposing a new conceptualisation and highlighting the entanglement of professional learning and practice.

Why is it important?

The findings show that interagency domestic violence work is only truly 'integrated' when it is victim-centred. This has important implications for framing understandings of domestic violence interagency work in and for shaping collaborative practice in this context.

Perspectives
