General overview: This article summarises the report, Promoting Positive Gender Relationships:(December 2004), which is a project between the Queensland Office for Women and the Curriculum Strategy Branch of Education Queensland. Objective:The report examines the opportunities for Queensland state schools to implement curriculum-based programs to provide students with life skills for enhanced gender relationships in work, family and civic life, and to facilitate respectful, healthy and non discriminatory relationships between young people in Queensland. Results:It finds that many young people do not have adequate skills to develop and maintain healthy, respectful and safe relationships, and those current school-based programs that target health relationships are gender-neutral and focus on skill development instead of challenging the attitudes and beliefs that promote gendered violence. Conclusions:The report concludes that curriculum programs that give students opportunities to explore the understandings of gendered violence and to challenge the norms, can be developed and implemented in Queensland state schools.
