Women should be safe no matter where they are, what they’re doing or what they’re wearing.
In response to recent horrific events of men’s violence against women in our community, Senator for the ACT and Minister for Women Katy Gallagher is inviting all Canberra women and girls to share their experiences and ideas for change in this survey.
A summary of key findings from the survey will be made public following its conclusion, alongside a list of commitments and proposed next steps.
All questions are optional to respond to, and any results will be anonymised and de-identified.
This is a survey to hear your experiences to inform policy changes.
