Engaging Men and Boys Literature Review Summary – PVT
In 2024, Preventing Violence Together conducted a review of academic literature on engaging men and boys in the prevention of men’s violence against women. This report summarises findings from 27 peer-reviewed journal articles.
Change the story – Our Watch
Change the story is an evidence-based framework to guide a coordinated and effective national approach to preventing violence against women.
It goes beyond a focus on individual behaviours to consider the broader social, political, and economic factors that drive violence against women, and the social context of gender inequality in which this violence arises.
Importantly, it outlines the essential actions needed at all levels of society – from individuals to schools, from workplaces to governments – to address these underlying drivers and stop this violence before it starts.
