A new trajectory for domestic violence perpetrator research and interventions?

Professors Liz Kelly from London Metropolitan University, Nicole Westmarland from Durham University and Charlotte Watts, from the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, have been investigating the extent to which perpetrator programmes reduce violence and increase safety for women and children, and the routes by which they contribute to coordinated community responses to domestic violence.

Called ‘Project Mirabal’, this was a research project carried out at Durham University’s Centre for Research into Violence and Abuse (CRiVA).
