Understanding risk for repeat victimisation in Aotearoa New Zealand through an intersectional lens
Ministry of Justice1 Jul 2023 - 30 Jun 2024
This research extends and complements work undertaken (and ongoing) by MoJ to better understand who is at increased risk of re-victimisation in Aotearoa New Zealand. A starting point for this is augmenting insight into which intersectional groups are most likely to experience re-victimisation.
