The project will determine the prevalence of family violence using the Pacific Growing Up in NZ families and identify the risk and protective factors relevant to preventing and enhancing Pacific family resilience to family violence and related harms.

The findings from this research will equip the government with the evidence necessary to make strength-based policy and funding decisions that enhance Pacific family resilience to family violence and related harms.
