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. 

This is a foundational primary prevention resource that relates to many of the capabilities outlined in Foundations for Change.
