Violence Awareness - Police Contribution

Violence as a social problem in general and particular areas of violence is distorting social values and norms and disturbing the public. Thus in the Republic of Croatia in 2019 domestic violence has caused great media attention and public protest. Trigger was a case where a father threw his children off the balcony. The police as a formal control strive to cooperate with all relevant actors to raise awareness of the problem of violence in which the victims are mostly the weakest members of society (children women elderly people etc.). On the official site of the Ministry of the Interior information on criminal offences and misdemeanors of domestic violence and the number of victims can be found. The aim is to inform the public with the incidence of the offenses and misdemeanors in the area of domestic violence by which the police and other relevant services handle away from the public eye. The presentation will present data on this awareness-raising model as well as first experiences from the perspective of the police.
