dc.description.notesAbstract:<br/ >"Domestic violence is a serious social issue within New Zealand society. Asian<br/ >immigrant women with domestic violence experiences often face specific sociocultural<br/ >challenges and barriers that hinder them from making sense of their<br/ >experience, seeking help and accessing necessary intervention. In New Zealand,<br/ >there is limited domestic violence research which focuses on the lived experience<br/ >of women in Asian immigrant communities.<br/ ><br/ >This research attempts to fill this gap by exploring Chinese women's experience<br/ >of domestic violence in New Zealand. It explores the dynamics of domestic<br/ >violence in the context of family, community and immigration and the impact of<br/ >violence on Chinese women's health and wellbeing. It examines the cultural and<br/ >gendered factors which shape Chinese women's experiences and their helpseeking<br/ >strategies. This research identifies barriers facing the women when they<br/ >seek help from their informal and formal support networks. It also examines, from<br/ >the Chinese women's perspective, the role of the Chinese community and<br/ >statutory and community-based services in offering effective intervention to<br/ >Chinese women."<br/ >Open sourceen
