“…This statement corroborates studies conducted in Brazil, Chile, Saudi Arabia and Spain, upon identifying that most health professionals recognize that they had not received training related to marital violence during graduation and/or professional action, in addition to the interface with unpreparedness in acting in this context (3,13,(22)(23) .…”

“…Therefore, the presence of subsidies to assist women in situations of marital violence with quality in the network is essential. These findings are corroborated in researches developed in Brazil and Spain, which add the need for professionals to build a relationship of trust with clients and, through qualified support, adequately manage the problems arising from marital violence inherent to their field of activity (10,22) . In this study, the women pointed out as characteristics related to good care: the one that provided listening, drug therapy and the recommendation to break the marital relationship with violent interactions.…”

Método: estudo qualitativo, descritivo, desenvolvido com oito mulheres em situação de violência conjugal assistidas em uma Unidade de Saúde da Família. Dados coletados em entrevista e análise dos dados fundamentada na Análise de Conteúdo Temática proposta por Bardin. Resultados: evidenciou-se vivência de assimetrias em relação às percepções atribuídas à assistência recebida nos serviços de saúde, indo desde a percepção de um bom atendimento, permeado pela atenção, respeito e qualidade na comunicação, até a vivência de atendimento inadequado, assim percebido em decorrência da não investigação e não abordagem da violência por parte dos profissionais de saúde. Conclusão: as mulheres em situação de violência conjugal revelaram que, frente ao adoecimento físico e mental oriundo da vivência de violência conjugal, procuravam o suporte da rede de atenção à saúde.Descritores: Violência de Gênero.

Except for the knowledge that the Roma people endure harsh conditions and are victims of discrimination, scarce criminological research has given detailed attention to further victimisation or offending among the Romanies. Identifying articles in the browsers Web of Science, Google Scholar and Google, we reviewed European publications (1997–2020) in English, French, Romanian or Spanish that addressed the Roma’s victimisation or offending. The 44 studies that matched our criteria suggested that (1) Roma people are victims of hate crimes with devastating consequences; (2) Roma children and women are victims of domestic violence to a greater degree than other groups, although the Roma tend to oppose violence against women; (3) forced early marriages exist among some Romanies and may cause serious problems in adulthood; (4) youth delinquency among the Roma does not differ from that of the non-Roma, although Roma adolescents face more deprivation; (5) Roma men and women are overrepresented in prison and face many difficulties in re-entering society once they are released and (6) there are organised criminal activities in some Roma groups that are supported by their community. Further rigorous post-positivist research, particularly quantitative, is needed to generalise the findings and replicate former studies. Areas of special interest are the causes of anti-Roma discrimination other than ethnicity, the victimisation of children, the Roma’s lack of institutional trust and the relation between victimisation and offending. Conducting comparisons with the general population is essential, and we propose that victims’ surveys and self-reported delinquency studies include questions on ethnicity.

“…Further, the hate crimes the Roma suffer because of their ethnicity appear to be under-reported, as according to police data, only 12 people reported their hate-motivated victimisation in 2019 (Portal Estadístico de Criminalidad, 2020). Other Spanish researchers have highlighted the vulnerable situation of Roma children (Gutiérrez-Sánchez, 2015;Oliván, 2002), the challenges health personnel face when they attempt to detect intimate partner violence among the Spanish Roma (Briones-Vozmediano et al, 2021), and the over-representation of Roma women in Spanish prisons, which has been documented for at least 20 years (Cerezo, 2017;Hernández et al, 2001), as well as the extent of organised crime among Roma families (Giménez-Salinas et al, 2012). Some of these topics are not related directly to victimisation or discriminatio n biases, but they may well be interrelated, because the overlap between offending and victimisation has been corroborated in several settings (see Aebi, 2006;Jennings, Piquero, & Reingle, 2012;Pauwels & Svensson, 2011).…”

This article highlights the research potential of the European Union Minorities and Discrimination Survey (EU-MIDIS), which the European Union Agency for Fundamental Rights had conducted twice across Europe by 2021. It begins with an overview of the EU-MIDIS project before concentrating on the second survey (EU-MIDIS II) conducted in 2015 and 2016 (N=25,500), the database of which is available in open access. The paper focuses on the main findings of the EU-MIDIS II in Spain, where the sample was composed of migrants from North Africa and people of Roma ethnicity (N=1,563). The main findings of the survey provide helpful insights into a form of victimisation that is usually absent in official criminal statistics, yet the Spanish EU-MIDIS II database is a mine of information waiting to be exploited. This article proposes a series of analyses that could be performed, including logistic and ordinal regression, as well as mediation modelling, which could identify the variables that influence minorities’ discrimination and victimisation. Finally, the strengths and weaknesses of the EU-MIDIS project are discussed.
