In Australia, females constitute just over half (50.7%) of the population and many women and young girls have safety concerns in Australian urban spaces. It is a global issue however, with the United Nations estimating that 1 in 3 women have experienced physical or sexual violence. We hear all too often the heartbreaking news headlines that send shock waves through the community, a timely reminder that now more than ever, it’s time to act!

This event will showcase passionate and strong advocates who will be sharing their recent research findings and expert knowledge in this area.
