dc.description.notesThis paper reports on the experiences and ideas of Aboriginal women living in inland rural New South Wales towns about access to protection through the Apprehended Violence Order (AVO) scheme. The introduction of AVOs was intended to provide a legal protection for all women in violent relationships. However, Aboriginal women's utilisation of the formal justice system is inhibited by colonisation experiences and over-representation of Aboriginal people in custody. Since AVOs escalate from the civil to the criminal court jurisdiction when breached, women are reluctant to contribute in the criminalisation of their partner. Further barriers are that negative court experiences, such as shame and discrimination, are very likely to occur, and AVOs do not generate any real change in the men's behaviour. Culturally relevant initiatives and services are necessary to achieve a framework where the AVO scheme could be effectively employed.en
