From the Ground Up: Community-led Approaches to Violence Prevention – CEVAW
Primary prevention initiatives work best when they are tailored to their local context. In this episode of the Centre for Excellence for the Elimination of Violence Against Women Conversations Podcast, three experts discuss the community-led initiatives they’ve been involved in. These initiatives varied in scale but shared core components. The podcast includes Dixie Link-Gordon, Aunty-in-residence at the Women and Girls Emergency Centre, Dr Zoe Bell, CEVAW Research Fellow at ANU, and Dr Jenny Anderson with Respect Victoria.
