Australia’s National Research Organisation for Women’s Safety (ANROWS) has released this report exploring young people’s understandings of domestic violence, which builds upon insights gained from the 2017 National Community Attitudes towards Violence against Women Survey. Many new insights and findings were found and are detailed in this report.
Explores the process of collaboration, the key learnings that have evolved through the partnership and important role of early intervention with young men in preventing intimate partner violence and future family violence.
The second and final report from the “Adverse childhood experiences and the intergenerational transmission of domestic and family violence in young people who engage in harmful sexual behaviour and violence against women” project.

In the third instalment of the Emerging Themes video series, Dr Heidi Saunders, speaks on the importance of safe and effective engagement with young people in the context of domestic and family violence (DFV).
In the second instalment of the Emerging Themes video series, Professor Sarah Wendt & Dr Carmela Bastian, speak on the importance of how effective system collaboration and coordination can keep children and families safe.
ANROWS has released this research report as part of the What works: Overviews of reviews series. This study outlines the state of the evidence from existing systematic reviews in relation to the effectiveness of crisis and post-crisis interventions for victims and survivors of sexual violence. It found that the most evaluated crisis response interventions were sexual assault response teams and sexual assault nurse examiner programs, and while there is emerging evidence that these are effective across several outcomes, the evidence base is limited and the quality of the evidence overall is poor. Evaluations of post-crisis responses were found to be similarly small and lacking methodological rigour despite some evidence of improved mental health outcomes.
The ease with which infants and young children embraced technology worked in favor of using the online space. Playful, restorative, and creative ways of engaging with a highly vulnerable cohort of families were achieved; enhancing relational repair following both family violence and the isolation created by restrictions imposed by lockdowns.
This resource offers guidance to support evidence-informed, intersectional and respectful approaches to policy and practice that aim to prevent violence against women and girls with disabilities, across jurisdictions and sectors.
