Changing the landscape – Our Watch & Women with Disabilities Victoria

PVT — Fri, 31 Oct 2025 05:50:14 +0000

Changing the landscape is the national, evidence-based framework to guide the prevention of violence against women and girls with disabilities.

Changing the landscape complements, expands on and extends the evidence contained in Change the story. It names ableism and gender inequality as the two consistent, intersecting drivers of violence against women and girls with disabilities.

It sets out the actions that must be taken to address these drivers and stop this violence before it starts. It points to the many stakeholders that need to take action – from individuals to communities, schools and workplaces, to disability and health services, and governments. It makes clear that we all have a role to play in preventing this violence.

This resource is related to Foundations for Change Capabilities 1.1, 1.2 and 2.3.

PVT — Fri, 31 Oct 2025 04:00:55 +0000

Now more than ever, it’s important to look boldly at the reality of race and gender bias, and understand how the two can combine to create even more harm. Kimberlé Crenshaw uses the term “intersectionality” to describe this phenomenon. As she says, if you’re standing in the path of multiple forms of exclusion, you’re likely to get hit by both. In this moving talk, she calls on us to bear witness to this reality and speak up for victims of prejudice.
