Abstract

This paper addresses the matter of violence against women, an extremely important issue, given the alarming data on the occurrence of crimes of this kind. The monograph presents a constitutional and legislative study, especially regarding Law No. 11.340 / 06 (Maria da Penha Law), so demonstrating the need for specific legislation, the forms of the protection provided, and mainly the responsibility of the city government regarding the implementation of a shelter for the victims of violence against women, aiming to provide protection in certain extreme cases. However, the focus of the assignment is in Capão da Canoa / RS, reason why data on violence against women from this city was brought along with the administrative measures currently adopted and, finally, a cost-benefit analysis of the said implementation was performed. In these terms, the question is: would the implementation of a shelter in Capão da Canoa be a relevant factor to prevent the violence suffered by the victims, justifying the invested public value? The approach method used is deductive, starting from the study of the need for special protection towards women, considering their vulnerability, to a conclusion reached through logic, after field researches conducted with victims of domestic violence in Capão da Canoa (analysis of the benefits from the victims' point of view) and with cities that currently have or are studying the implementation of a shelter (budget analysis). The study of the theme is fundamentally important, since, through the research, it was possible to conclude that, in the perception of almost half of the interviewed victims, the existence of a shelter could have prevented the occurrence of the violence suffered.
