Newsroom leaders are encouraged to register for a new online information session from leading violence against women prevention organisation, Our Watch, designed to support them in preventing violence against women.
The lunchtime information session aims to help media leadership deliver stories about violence against women in a way that evidence shows works to prevent this violence.
The session at 1 pm on 11 June 2025 provides a concise overview of how national violence prevention organisation Our Watch can support them and their teams to:
- Strengthen reporting on violence against women through small but powerful editorial shifts.
- Access information on available training and resources that improve story quality and newsroom impact.
- Learn how Our Watch can support media executives in creating safer, more gender-equitable workplaces.
- Connect with Our Watch’s Media Relations team for expert commentary, interviews, and background information.
