“…The prevalence in this study did not coincide with the prevalence of reported genderbased violence according to the Ministry of Health, specifically the State Observatory on Violence against Women (10) . Thus, there seems to be a mismatch between the prevalence of violence and reported cases, in accordance with other studies conducted in Spain (21) . The prevalence obtained was similar to that of other studies conducted with health professionals in other countries: a study in Jordan found that 59% of the nurses had suffered psychological IPV (6) ; a study in the United States found that 25% of the nurses had suffered IPV (4) .…”

Objective:To determine the prevalence of intimate partner violence among health care professionals who work in the Spanish National Health System, according to the autonomous communities of Spain. Method: This was a descriptive cross-sectional multicenter study conducted with male and female health professionals (doctors, nurses, and nursing aides) in the different autonomous communities that are part of the Spanish National Health System. The following instruments were employed: among women, an intimate partner violence screening questionnaire; and among men, a questionnaire that screened for violence in the family environment. Results: A total of 1,039 health professionals participated in the study. Of these, 26% had suffered some type of abuse. Among the men, this prevalence was 2.7%, while among the women, it was 33.8%. There were differences in the prevalence of intimate partner violence among different autonomous communities, with the highest percentages in the Canary Islands. In terms of profession, 19.5% of the doctors had been exposed to intimate partner violence, while this percentage was 31% and 48.6% for nurses and nursing professionals, respectively. Conclusion:The results indicate the presence of intimate partner violence among healthcare personnel in most of the autonomous communities of Spain. The data demonstrate the need to implement action plans, both to support victims and to mitigate the problem.

“…This refers to the fact that the cases of VAW that are filed and those collected through investigations are only a part of the whole, and they are generally the more severe ones. The existence of other forms of violence remains hidden [38]. However, some interviewees consider this invisibility, in the case of Roma women, to be – to a certain point – understandable, without which VAW could become an anti-Roma tool [27].…”

Background: Violence against women (VAW) is a central issue in gender studies and one that has united feminist activists from around the world. But this does not mean that this struggle is singular: indeed, one can say that there are many, diverse and sometimes even contradictory struggles occurring throughout the world. Objectives: To identify and analyze the different struggles faced by women from Roma organizations in Spain in relation to VAW and their work with affected women. Methods: Twelve semi-structured interviews were conducted among women actively involved in Roma associations in different Spanish cities, in 2015. An inductive thematic analysis was used to analyze the empirical materials. Results: Our analysis resulted in three themes that captured different struggles that women from Roma organizations have faced: ‘between persistence and rupture of restrictive gender norms’, ‘invisibility and normalization of violence against women’ and ‘willingness and trust in daily work with women’. The activities related to VAW carried out by the interviewed women were more related to their personal initiatives and abilities than to strategies proposed by the organizations they work for. Conclusions: The results show the need to support the initiatives of Romani women and their own struggles related to identity. This is what makes them true promoters of social change and, more specifically, change related to gender relations both within and outside of their communities.

La información se tomó del registro de la Federación de Mujeres Separadas y Divorciadas 17 , y se recogieron desde enero de 1997 a diciembre de 2003.…”
