SUMMARY:Breaking the Silence: The Role of Women's Shelters and Legal Infrastructure in IPV Reporting
DESCRIPTION:12:00 to 1:00 // Does increased legal infrastructure lead to higher intimate partner violence (IPV) reporting and empower victims to leave abusive relationships? Structural barriers often prevent IPV victims from seeking help, with two-thirds of female victims in Europe neither reporting incidents to the police nor accessing support services. I study the rollout of women’s shelters and the introduction of the 2002 Violence Protection Act in Germany, which established a structured cooperation framework between shelters, courts, and police. I leverage variation in the rollout of shelters and the introduction of the reform to identify its effects, using newly digitized data on shelter opening dates combined with administrative county-level data.
