There are four main areas of TFA:</font></font></p><ul><li><font style="font-size: 100.0%;"><font>Harassment &ndash; for example, sending menacing images such as a coffin; bombarding with calls, emails and texts.</font></font></li><li><font style="font-size: 100.0%;"><font>Monitoring/stalking &ndash; for example, hacking into a person&rsquo;s email or bank accounts, or covert GPS tracking.</font></font></li><li><font style="font-size: 100.0%;"><font>Impersonation &ndash; for example, creating a false account resulting in the woman being harassed or stalked by others or to send abusive messages to her family and friends.</font></font></li><li><font style="font-size: 100.0%;"><font>Threats/punishment &ndash; for example, posting embarrassing comments or intimate images.</font></font></li></ul><p><font style="font-size: 100.0%;"><font>TFA is often a form of domestic violence. Almost all (98%) of domestic violence sector practitioners in Australia surveyed in a recent study stated they had clients who had experienced technology-facilitated stalking and abuse1. According to this study, the group most commonly identified as facing particular risks in relation to TFA was women from non-English speaking countries. Practitioners have noted that there are specific risks for women from CALD backgrounds, with people sometimes using technology to further isolate women from family and friends.</font></font></p><p><font style="font-size: 100.0%;"><font>This commissioned qualitative research seeks to better understand CALD women&rsquo;s experiences of TFA.</font></font></p><p><strong><font style="font-size: 100.0%;"><font>The qualitative research has the following objectives:</font></font></strong></p><ul><li><font style="font-size: 100.0%;"><font>To hear the stories of CALD women who have experienced TFA</font></font></li><li><font style="font-size: 100.0%;"><font>To gain insight into specific situations and issues CALD women face in relation to TFA</font></font></li><li><font style="font-size: 100.0%;"><font>To understand the impact of TFA on CALD women</font></font></li><li><font style="font-size: 100.0%;"><font>To understand preferred pathways to seek assistance/take action and trusted sources of help/support</font></font></li><li><font style="font-size: 100.0%;"><font>To understand cultural sensitivities that need to be considered in relation to the type of support and information provided</font></font></li></ul><p><font style="font-size: 100.0%;"><font>Reference</font></font></p><p><font style="font-size: 100.0%;"><font>Women&rsquo;s Legal Service NSW, Domestic Violence Resource Centre Victoria and WESNET (2015), ReCharge: women&rsquo;s technology safety &ndash; National study findings</font></font></p><p><strong><font style="font-size: 100.0%;"><font>Project contact</font></font></strong><br /><font style="font-size: 100.0%;"><font>Karen Kellard</font></font><br /><font style="font-size: 100.0%;"><font>Australian National University</font></font></p><p><strong><font style="font-size: 100.0%;"><font>Funding Body</font></font></strong><br /><font style="font-size: 100.0%;"><font>Office of the eSafety Commissioner</font></font></p><p><strong><font style="font-size: 100.0%;"><font>Project start &amp; End Dates</font></font></strong><br /><font style="font-size: 100.0%;"><font>March 2018 &ndash; June 2018</font></font></p>en
