A VITIMIZAÇÃO SECUNDÁRIA NOS CASOS DE VIOLÊNCIA SEXUAL CONTRA A MULHER NO BRASIL

Abstract

Throughout this paper, the essential role of the State in preventing secondary victimization was emphasized, highlighting the importance of measures ensuring the protection of victims, confidentiality of information, and equitable access to justice. The restorative justice approach was introduced as a promising alternative, prioritizing damage repair and reconciliation in contrast to traditional punitive approaches. The adopted methodology involved a literature review, enabling a critical analysis and synthesis of existing knowledge on the subject. The study concluded that secondary victimization reflects not only individual issues but also systemic failures requiring a comprehensive response. The crucial role of the State in creating an environment that promotes justice, respect, and victim protection was underscored.
