The Australian Government and state and territory
governments recognise that understanding and
identifying coercive control is fundamental to
effectively responding to family and domestic
violence. To support this endeavour, the National
Principles to Address Coercive Control in Family
and Domestic Violence (the National Principles)
set out a shared understanding about the common
features and impacts of coercive control, and
guiding considerations to inform responses.
Consistent and clear understanding of coercive
control will make it easier for governments,
non-government organisations, frontline services,
law enforcement, the judiciary, academic institutions,
businesses, families and the community to work
together to identify and address this insidious issue,
support victim-survivor safety and healing, and
reinforce perpetrator accountability. (From the Introduction). Record #8571
