WHAT IS DV PREVENTION 360?

DV Prevention 360 is a live-streamed national conversation and fundraiser, bringing together community voices and insights from those closest to the problem. Throughout the event, we’ll hear candid stories from frontline workers, people who have used violence and chosen change, music artists, and live callers, while raising funds to support critical early prevention work through the Circuit Breaker program.

You can expect a bold, 360-degree look at the current state of prevention in Australia, with a forward-looking focus on practical solutions and what we can learn from approaches that are already working.

You're encouraged to be mindful of your own personal capacity to sit with these strong themes, and to limit your engagement to what feels safe for you.
