| dc.description.notes | Describes how, in the United States, the passage of the Violence Against Women Act (the ‘VAWA’) which included Indian tribal Governments as entities eligible for direct funding, has been an important trigger for the expansion of domestic violence services for American Indian women. This funding has increased the ability of American Indian tribal governments to develop tribally-run programmes, many of which are run by women and which bring with them enhanced opportunities for skill development and empowerment. Argues that a fundamental difference between the United States and Australia is the non-existence in Australia of a treaty or treaties, and the lack of formal recognition of sovereignty and/or self-determination. Asserts that the reduction of domestic violence is crucial to the empowerment of both Indigenous women and Indigenous communities. | en |
