Ending Gendered Violence

16 Days of Activism

Let's Chat Gippsland

“Let’s Chat Gippsland” is a community campaign that began as part of the annual international United Nations (UN) 16 Days of Activism initiative that runs from 25 November to 10 December each year. Gippslanders come together to collectively bring awareness to the 16 Days of Activism against Gendered Violence campaign.

Campaign & Website

Stop Tech Abuse

Gendered and family violence continues to be a critical issue across Gippsland and regional Victoria –  with rates nearly double those seen in metropolitan areas. Increasingly, technology is being weaponised as a tool for abuse, through tracking, surveillance, harassment and control.

In response, Gippsland Women’s Health, in partnership with rural and regional women’s health services and supported by the eSafety Commissioner, has launched the eAware – Stop Tech Abuse campaign and website.

Partnership

Respectful Gippsland

The Respectful Gippsland Partnership has been founded to provide leadership, strategic direction and build on networks for those working to address gender inequity and prevent gendered violence in Gippsland.

Gendered violence continues to be a barrier for women in achieving equality across the world. Intimate partner violence is the leading cause of death, disability and illness for Australian women between the ages of 18 and 44 years.
