Autumn Learning Series: Nationality

This session explores how immigration status, language barriers, and xenophobia contribute to systemic invisibility in domestic abuse cases. Drawing on patterns from Domestic Homicide Reviews, we’ll examine how assumptions about culture and communication can lead professionals to defer to others, overlook risk, and miss opportunities to safeguard.

We’ll also consider how undocumented status and limited English can increase vulnerability to sexual exploitation. Professionals will be supported to challenge bias, recognise hidden risks, and respond with curiosity and compassion.
