Domestic violence is a wide spread social problem that affects millions of women all around Europe and in other part of the world. Preventing and reducing violence in intimate relationships might help creating safer environments for those involved and for children exposed to domestic violence. In some European countries, such as Italy, there is still a scarce attention and professionalism in facing these cases and determing, which victims are at higher risk of being revictimised by their partner or former partner or even killed by them.
