Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Most acts of violence are often taken place behind the closet doors and hidden in the society. The researchers conducted the survey on violence against women in Kansai region in 2016. This survey is a Japanese version of the “survey on women’s well-being and safety” that had been conducted by FRA in 28 EU member States in 2012. One of the most significant findings is that, among 53 Japanese women who were physically or sexually abused by partners, none of them reported the incidents to the police, compared with 14 percent of victims who reported to the police in the EU (The ratio of violence reported from non-partners was about the same among Japanese and EU women, at 12 and 13 percent respectively). Apparently people tend to refrain from reporting domestic abuse to the police in Japan. This finding implies that neighbors who notice the incident are strongly encouraged to report it to the local authorities such as the police.
