Join Professors Vickie Hovane and Harry Blagg, authors of the ANROWS report Innovative models in addressing violence against Indigenous women, for a workshop based on their findings. Suitable for professionals working with Aboriginal people and communities, this workshop will focus on creating a response to family violence that reflects the needs of local women.
