Webinar program
The ANROWS webinar program brings together policymakers, practice designers, practitioners, and women with lived expertise of violence to discuss research findings and key policy issues relevant to preventing and responding to violence against women and children.
By bringing together a diverse range of speakers informed by the evidence-base, lived expertise, and policy and practice knowledge, ANROWS webinars focus upon research implications for policy and practice.
Our webinars work across sectors to help identify challenges and opportunities to implement and mobilise the evidence base to better support women and their children experiencing violence.
