520 |a In response to some of the highest rates of intimate partner violence in the world, Pacific small island states have enacted domestic violence laws in recent years. Implementation of these laws, however, has presented multiplex challenges. Cultural and religious interpretations underpin social norms that normalise violence as a means of disciplining women and family conflict resolution. They also influence legal frameworks and institutional actors providing protection and justice for survivors of violence. Geographical isolation with limited support services fuels the perpetuation of these norms and ensuing violence. In response, government and non-government actors contend with implementing workable solutions that can also transform harmful gender relations within their cultural and faith contexts. Current progress and emerging interventions highlight the need to complement legal protection with multi-pronged strategies that engage with Pacific cultures and faiths, transform harmful social norms, and promote alternative ways of relating aligned to Pacific values.
