Notes:	Provides a background to the ‘Respect, Protect, Connect’ project and its affiliation with Women’s Health in the South East (WHISE), before reviewing various definitions and typologies of violence and the research into its incidence, prevalence and impact. The gendered nature of violence and the unique disadvantages faced by Indigenous, homosexual, disabled and NESB women are explored. Research into violence in schools and the obligations of educational administrators and the government in preventing such violence is discussed and some approaches to prevention suggested. Specific strategies for preventing violence against young women are then examined. A list of community and government support/intervention agencies throughout Victoria is provided and some examples of workshop outlines and activities are presented.
