reflect the full range of survivors’ concerns and needs, with respect to survivors’ rights, dignity and
agency.
2. Ensure sufficient resources and ongoing capacity building for the police, victim advocates,
prosecutors, courts and centres for social work and the courts to deal with domestic violence cases
sensitively, professionally, efficiently, without undue delays and with respect for the rights, dignity and
agency of all survivors.

includes protecting and promoting their agency, autonomy, confidentiality, privacy and safety.

able to access the shelter.
