Such a fantastic evening and so great to see the research resonate so strongly within the broader African community in Australia. Thanks to @AfricanWomenAu and @vmapedzahama for welcoming me into this space to share the perspectives of the young African women in my research.

Really honoured to have been asked to keynote the forthcoming @AfricanWomenAu webinar. Register via the link below if you're interested in hearing @vmapedzahama & I discuss our forthcoming paper ‘Black Bodies, Black Queens & the Black Sisterhood on Social Media’- THURS 25th 7-8PM

The #16Days might be ending, but we won’t stop providing evidence about ending #VAW: together we will keep this urgent issue at the forefront of discussions all year. To keep using information & statistics accurately, keep this ANROWS resource handy: https://t.co/HxA61UsnhS

Our new report led by @JWangmann shows most people who represent themselves in the Family Court - can't afford a private lawyer, but don’t meet the criteria for legal aid - find it difficult to obtain ongoing legal advice on their case. https://t.co/H0Mg4oQoE8

In working to end #VAW, it's essential that we examine #accountability for perpetrators. ANROWS research shows that focusing on a perpetrator’s use of violence as a “parenting choice” is effective in holding #fathers to account for using family violence. https://t.co/G7R8Mxu4jF

Australians view sexual violence as more justifiable when it's perpetrated by an intimate partner rather than by a stranger or acquaintance. This concerning attitude hides & enables abuse. Learn more about intimate partner sexual violence: https://t.co/o7yGNzbNWL #16days #IPSV

From 2020–2022 ANROWS's Core Grant Research Program is focusing on projects related to #children & young people who are exposed to #VAW. This research is guided by Australia’s National Research Agenda to Reduce Violence against Women & their Children: https://t.co/nzSmR6yUhx

Focused support is crucial for #children who use violence against their families. This summary of research on 'Positive Interventions for Perpetrators of Adolescent violence in the home' points to the importance of developing specialist expertise. #16days https://t.co/qHcKjapKmU

On #16days day 3 we're focusing on the impacts of #VAW on #children & young people. ANROWS research shows that children's needs can become invisible in #DFV & DFV-allied services. Their needs must be prioritised when working with DFV. https://t.co/FbUjXi6ZgR

Today’s #16days resource is a fact sheet on the impacts of inter-parental conflict & #DFV after #separation. Research shows both are associated with negative effects on social & emotional wellbeing for parents & children, & reduced #parenting efficacy. https://t.co/7VtoCVB0hr

The identification of women victims/survivors—especially Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander women—as perpetrators of #DFV is a significant problem in Australia. This ANROWS Notepad invites you to the launch of new research exploring this issue: https://t.co/sJS7VJdEAw

Histories of #DFV are common for imprisoned women. 70–90% of women in custody have experienced abuse. Many become caught in cycles as the risks/effects of violence & imprisonment exacerbate each other.

Webinar 5:30pm today will explore barriers faced by people from migrant & refugee backgrounds in accessing #domesticviolence services. @ANROWSCEO joins @MarkSpeakman @MariaDimopoulo4 @mspallavisinha @JulianaNkruma17 @amani_haydar_ @NicBerko & @SSI_tweets https://t.co/URlJXS2mnv

Congratulations to @NStottDespoja on your election to #CEDAW, & to @dfat @MarisePayne @AustraliaUN @officeforwomen & @pmc_gov_au on a successful bid to have an Australian expert on the Committee! Your work will make an important contribution to reducing #VAW internationally.

#VAW services need to be culturally safe for the victims/survivors and for the workers. Co-designing with communities therefore very important - Hannah Taylor @1800RESPECT #CSW65
