Prevention and Response to Gender-based Violence

At Edith Cowan University, we want everyone in our community to feel safe, respected and supported.

Our Gender-based Violence Prevention and Response Plan outlines how we’re working to prevent gender-based violence and support people who have been impacted.

The Plan focuses on the following five key areas

  • Leadership and governance
  • Awareness raising and community engagement
  • Life on campus
  • Training and education
  • Response and support

The Plan aligns with national recommendations and best practice guidelines, and reflects the feedback and experiences of our students and staff.
