#BREAKING Yet another woman has been killed. That’s 14 women in April. A woman every 2 days. I’m lost for words. We have all had enough. Tomorrow the PM has an emergency Roundtable. The nation is watching and are expecting real action & commitments to come from it.
If you are in Canberra, please join the protest meeting tomorrow night from 06:30 - 08:00 pm to stop Labor's Entry Ban - Deportation Bill which is organised by our friends at RAC Canberra. For people online, it will also be live streamed via Canberra Refugee Action Campaign
The House crossbench has written to the Prime Minister outlining immediate and longer term actions to address violence against women in Australia. These proposals follow extensive consultation with experts from the sector. Read the full letter below. zoedaniel.com.au/2024/04/29/let…
On Wednesday 1 May, @thesafvcentre and Meli, in partnership with @safestepsFV, are asking our community to shine a light to honour and remember the women and children who have been killed as a direct result of family violence.
We estimate Women’s Legal Services will have to turn away 52,000 women in crisis this year due to limited funding. This morning Minister for Women @SenKatyG was asked what the Govt is doing about this to end #VAW abc.net.au/listen/program…
We can't wait for ‘men to decide’ if they will stop using violence. We can't wait for institutions to stop promoting, protecting, employing predators. @AlboMP @SenKatyG @AmandaRishworth @MarkDreyfusKCMP @WLSAnetwork @CSMCVIC @nwsaau @jessradio @JennaPrice #SafetyFirst
We have had 13 women killed by male violence in April & yet I have 100s of men in my TL this week going what crisis? We can’t make progress until #allmen acknowledge we have a crisis of male violence We have a positive role to play in ending this. Let’s be part of the solution
As Aboriginal women, we know what must be done to end family violence and its devastating impact on our women, our kids, and our families. We are determined, but now we need the political will, real action, and investment. We have the solutions 6/7 @DjirraVIC
This morning I joined Professor @SummersAnne on ABC Radio National to call for immediate action to address the national shame of men’s violence against women across our country. Listen here ➡️ abc.net.au/listen/program… @DjirraVIC 1/7
“This is the central issue of our time, and if governments can’t rise to the occasion, voters need to tell them so.” @jessradio having a deeply impactful conversation with @NourHaydar — including valuable contributions from @BraybrookA podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/ful…
New data shows almost half the women who were victims of a homicide in the last financial year were killed by a former or current intimate partner. ab.co/3QpaDN3
Anyone in Australia who is or has experienced sexual, domestic or family violence can access free, confidential and 24/7 trauma-specialist counselling by calling 1800 FULL STOP (1800 385 578) or webchat at fullstop.org.au
You can make a difference in your community and help prevent violence against women. How? By promoting gender equality at home, at school and at work. Here are some ideas to help you get started!
“Men who use violence aren’t monsters. They are our neighbours, our family members, our partners – and we must start treating this as a systemic problem, instead of seeing this as an issue caused by a few bad eggs,” theage.com.au/national/a-wom…
Australia, please listen. Statistically speaking, some time this week another woman will be found killed, most likely at the hands of someone she knew. & she won't care, & her family won't care who was or was not invited to speak at a podium. We NEED focus, not distraction. /1

🧵 Something not mentioned often in the killing of Australian women this year, is that alarmingly, rural and regional women are grossly over-represented. I looked at both Femicide Watch* and Counting Dead Women for my stats** *australianfemicidewatch.org/database/ **facebook.com/photo/?fbid=87…
@Kon__K I think the biggest bubble to burst is the bubble that men have with each other that they say things to other men that they wouldn't say in front of a woman. Let them know its not safe to do so around you!

@Kon__K Deliciousness. I’ve made this, twice! Even my zucchini adverse teenagers ‘don’t mind it’! Praise indeed.
@Kon__K Their vitriol against you is a reflection of the deep discontent and bitterness within them. It’s not about you at all. They see a man advocating for women as an affront to their own masculinity. If their masculinity is that fragile they have some serious work to do on themselves
