dc.description.notesPresents the results of a survey of 164 young Territorians that aimed to test their knowledge about and attitudes towards domestic violence and sexual abuse. The majority of respondents (65%) were between the ages of 15-17 years, 23% were aged 12-14 years and 12% were aged 18 and over. The survey comprised seven questions designed to test young Territorians knowledge of, and attitudes about, domestic violence. Key findings included: 98% of respondents agreed that domestic violence is a crime; 90% of female and 69% of male respondents disagreed that girls often say no to sex when they mean yes; 80% of females compared to 55% of males would call the police if they were experiencing domestic violence; and 49% of all respondents knew someone who had been a victim of domestic violence. The conclusion provides a general report of findings and future directions for the Community Education Campaign, concluding that the Domestic Violence Community Education Program has been effective in raising the awareness of domestic violence in the community.en
