Tuesday 27 April 2021 from 1pm to 2pm
Multi award-winning investigative journalist, author, and inaugural UTS Journalist-in-Residence Jess Hill has been writing and researching about domestic abuse since 2014.
Domestic abuse is a national emergency: one in four Australian women has experienced violence from a man she was intimate with. It affects more than three million women and children around the country.
In her 2019 Stella-award winning book, See What You Made Me Do, Jess Hill holds a spotlight to perpetrators and the systems that enable them. Those systems are in motion in today’s national dialogue and reactions to the uprising of Australian women calling out the ongoing inaction and lack of accountability in our parliament, in our schools, and in our homes.
Join Jess Hill in conversation with Verity Firth on how we can confront the national crisis of domestic violence and drastically reduce it – not in generations to come, but today.
