- Domestic Violence against LGBTI PeoplePublication . Sousa, Edgar; Neves, Sofia; Ferreira, Mafalda; Topa, Joana; Vieira, Cristina Pereira; Borges, Janete; Costa, Rodrigo; Lira, André; Tchounwou, Paul B.Lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans and intersex (LGBTI) people are more likely to be exposed to domestic violence than the rest of the population. Using a descriptive qualitative methodology, 28 professionals from the educational sector, aged between 28 and 64 years old (M = 44.5), were interviewed to describe and understand their perspectives on the sector’s ability to support, intervene and get involved with LGBTI people and, particularly, with victims or former victims of domestic violence. Through a thematic content analysis, three main themes emerged: (i) life trajectories of LGBTI people; (ii) domestic violence perpetrated against LGBTI people; and (iii) training of the educational sector to intervene with LGBTI people. The results show that Portuguese education professionals are not trained to recognize and intervene with LGBTI people and, in particular, with those who are victims of domestic violence, since they are unaware of the existence of protocols and/or guidelines for detecting and preventing risk situations among students. Furthermore, the curricular plan fails in the coverage of domestic violence and LGBTI-related topics, although the National Strategy for Citizenship Education has been implemented in Portugal since 2017. Findings suggest the need to invest in education professionals’ training.

- I Was the Violence Victim, I Am the Perpetrator: Bullying and Cyberbullying Perpetration and Associated Factors among AdolescentsPublication . Jankowiak, Barbara; Jaskulska, Sylwia; Martínez, Vanesa Pérez; Py˙zalski, Jacek; Barbero, Belén Sanz; Bowes, Nicola; Claire, Karen De; Neves, Sofia; Topa, Joana; Silva, Estefânia; Mocanu, Veronica; Cases, Carmen Vives; Peralta, Robert L.Bullying and cyberbullying significantly threaten the development and mental health of both victims and perpetrators. This study aimed to analyze the associations between socioeconomic characteristics, personal experiences of violence, perceived social support from peers, and acceptance of violence and (cyber)bullying perpetration. The study involved 1146 secondary school students, consisting of 698 females and 448 males, aged 13 to 16. Prevalence ratios (PRs) were calculated using Poisson regression with robust variance. The results indicated that 12.32% of girls and 18.97% of boys reported engaging in bullying and/or cyberbullying. The likelihood of perpetration was lower among adolescents who had not experienced physical and/or sexual abuse before age 15, but higher among those in romantic relationships who had been victims of dating violence or had experienced (cyber)bullying victimization. Additionally, perceived social support from classmates was associated with a lower likelihood of becoming a perpetrator, whereas acceptance of violence was positively associated with (cyber)bullying perpetration. Preventing adolescents from becoming perpetrators of bullying and/or cyberbullying requires early intervention to prevent all forms of violence in childhood and adolescence, as well as bolstering personal and environmental resources by providing social support.

- Imigração e saúde: a (in)acessibilidade das mulheres imigrantes aos cuidados de saúdePublication . Topa, Joana; Neves, Sofia; Nogueira, ConceiçãoA utilização dos serviços de saúde pelas populações imigrantes tem vindo a ser considerado um dos mais importantes indicadores da sua integração nas sociedades receptoras (Dias e col., 2009). No entanto, o conhecimento em torno da qualidade e da eficácia do acesso dos/as imigrantes aos cuidados de saúde, especialmente no que respeita às mulheres imigrantes, é ainda escasso em Portugal (Fonseca e col., 2005). Embora os estudos nacionais tenham vindo, nas últimas décadas, a procurar traçar os diferentes perfis sociais das mulheres imigrantes em Portugal, sobretudo no que concerne às suas relações familiares ou laborais (Wall e col., 2005), a investigação no domínio da saúde é ainda parca e exclusora de uma análise centrada no género ou interseccional. Neste texto apresenta-se uma reflexão sobre os determinantes que condicionam a (in)acessibilidade das mulheres imigrantes aos cuidados de saúde, enfatizando-se os fatores que poderão estar a agir no sentido contrário à sua integração neste setor.

- Intimate Partner Violence among Immigrant Woman: intersectional challenges in health servicesPublication . Topa, JoanaIn a world in progressive movement, with increasingly diverse societies, the number of women living in a multicultural and migration context is a recognized reality. Many immigrant women living in Portugal suffer intimate partner violence, however there are a lack of knowledge about these realities. This invisibility makes it difficult to understand their specific needs and difficulties. It is known that many cases of intimate partner violence remain unreported (FRA- European Union Agency for Fundamental Rights, 2014), which in the case of immigrant women may be more serious (WHO, 2014). Studies suggest that immigrant women face huge challenges related with the accessibility and use of the health services (Fonseca, Silva, McGarrigle & Esteves, 2007), namely victim support services. Considering this, this paper aims, through an intersectional lens, to create a conceptual and theoretical discussion about intimate partner violence among immigrant women as well as to explore the different barriers in the access and use of health support services.
