dc.description.abstract | This study uses 34 years of data from the National Homicide Monitoring Program to describe the prevalence and characteristics of homicide of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women. <br><br> Between 1 July 1989 and 30 June 2023, 476 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women were the victim of a homicide. Indigenous women experienced a homicide victimisation rate up to seven times the national average. Ninety-six percent (n=455) of the 473 homicide incidents involving an Indigenous woman were cleared by police. <br><br>Almost all victims from cleared incidents were killed by someone they knew (97%, n=446), most by an Indigenous male intimate partner (66%, n=301). <br><br> Findings highlight the over-representation of Indigenous women as victims of homicide in Australia and provide baseline data to measure Closing the Gap targets to reduce homicide and other violent victimisation among these women. | en_US |
