Domestic Violence Policy Simulator

I am concerned domestic violence funding in Australia may be misallocated. Allocation currently assumes men are nearly always the aggressors and women the victims. Many studies find this is not the case, and that men and women are equally likely to initiate domestic violence

This project will create an interactive domestic violence simulation that allows a user to experiment with different funding allocations and predict the likely result.

Statistics

Intimate partner violence was experienced by 1.5% of women in 2021-2022 (2022 ABS). The ABS did not bother to determine the rate for men.
Cohabiting partner violence experienced by 0.7% of women in 2021-2022 (2022 ABS). The ABS did not bother to determine the rate for men.
