One woman a week is murdered by a current or former partner. Nearly one in six girls and one in nine boys have experienced physical or sexual violence by the age of 15. Australia’s gendered violence epidemic requires comprehensive solutions to ensure family safety.
The 2nd National Family Safety Summit, co-designed and informed by lived experiences and Indigenous voices, platforms holistic and collaborative solutions to protect women and children from family, domestic and sexual violence.
Advancing the objectives of the National Plan to End Violence against Women and Children 2022-2032, this Summit showcases victim-centric practices and culturally tailored solutions to prevent gendered violence. By exploring place-based approaches and Trauma-Informed Care, it improves crisis responses for women and children escaping violence and promotes opportunities for healing. Additionally, it advocates for the protection of children and adolescents through age-specific programs to support family wellbein and break the cycle of intergenerational violence.

This beautiful artwork is our connection to the lands,seas, waterways,skies and stars. Just like our ancestors who have paved the way before us, we must take care of the lands and of mother earth.
Highlighted is the meeting places and our Elders guiding, sharing and passing on knowledge. The white tracks as walking tracks used for thousands of years walking over country.
The smaller circles adjoining clans and communities. The ripple circles, our mountain ranges and the large dot cirlces camp sites we would gather for a short stay.
The large lines comimg into the meeting place is our connection to the waterways, both salt water and fresh.for drinking, hunting, gathering and playing.
We all need to respect our past, respect our Elders and respect each other as we all have a responsibility to care and look after this beautiful country.
