Please contact the Clearinghouse. This report provides the findings from the Samoa Family Safety Study. The focus of the study was to assess the current situation of domestic and gender-based violence in Samoa, including the extent to which existing legislations, programmes and services have impacted the problem. It also aimed to provide a preliminary cost benefits analysis of the impacts of domestic violence on health, education, employment and economic development in Samoa.
