This webinar is the second in the webinar series: Implementing the Australian National Research Agenda 2023–2028. The series is aimed at supporting the implementation of the Australian National Research Agenda (ANRA), a national framework produced by ANROWS that identifies what evidence is needed to end domestic, family and sexual violence (DFSV) and how that evidence should be produced.
