Maram

MARAM stands for Multi-Agency Risk Assessment Meeting. As part of the Gender-Based Violence and Domestic Violence Strategy and Action Plan, MARAM coordinates the intelligence and operations of different entities who work directly with victims of domestic violence and gender-based violence and their children.

The role of MARAM is to facilitate, monitor, and evaluate effective information sharing between entities, and to enable appropriate actions to be taken towards the reduction of harm risk to victims of domestic violence and to increase public safety.

Professionals within the Domestic Violence Services are appointed as Designated MARAM officers (DMOs) to represent the voice of the victims and their children during MARAM.
