About us
**The Coroners Court is responsible for**:
- Independently investigating deaths and fires. Certain deaths and fires are reported to the Coroners for independent investigation. Their investigations seek to establish the facts - when, where, how, and why the death or fire happened.
- Reducing preventable deaths. Wherever possible, the Coroner will suggest ways to prevent similar deaths or fires by making well informed and practical recommendations, based on the evidence before them.
- Promoting public health and safety and the administration of justice. The court regularly reports on data and trends regarding preventable deaths in Victoria to help inform public health responses.
About the role
The Coroners Prevention Unit (CPU) provides support to Coroners to fulfil their prevention mandate to improve public health and safety.
The CPU manages the Victorian Systemic Review of Family Violence Deaths (VSRFVD), undertaking in-depth reviews of these complex deaths to contribute to strengthening the response to family violence across the state.
The primary role of the Project Officer Family Violence is to support the VSRFVD by:
- Identifying family violence homicides among deaths reported to the court.
- Tracking investigations through the criminal and (where relevant) coronial process and assessing whether the death meets the criteria of the VSRFVD.
- Reviewing case file material to undertake detailed coding of information about homicides investigated by Coroners, collating data, and preparing reports.
