Notes: | This report presents the findings of the third National Community Attitudes Survey Towards Violence Against Women survey, held in Australia in 2013. Attitudes that condone or tolerate violence are recognised as playing a central role in shaping the way individuals, organisations and communities respond to violence, so measuring community attitudes tells us how well we are progressing towards a violence-free society for all women, where to focus prevention efforts, and the messages and approaches most likely to be effective. The survey was was commissioned by the Department of Social Services and undertaken by VicHealth in collaboration with the Social Research Centre and The University of Melbourne. Overall, the majority of Australians have a good knowledge of violence against women and do not endorse most attitudes supportive of this violence. The report also considers how attitudes have changed since the first survey - published in 1995 as 'Community attitudes to violence against women' - and the second survey of 2009: 'National survey on community attitudes to violence against women'. |
