Attitudes matter: The 2021 National Community Attitudes towards Violence against Women Survey (NCAS), Findings for young Australians

Abstract

This report outlines the results from the 2021 National Community Attitudes towards Violence against Women Survey (NCAS) for young Australians aged 16 to 24 years. It presents findings for young Australians with comparison to other age groups. The report will interest stakeholders tasked with responding to, reducing and preventing violence against women, including policymakers, practitioners, practice designers, educators, researchers, community organisations and media. It has particular relevance for respectful relationships and violence prevention education in Australian schools and with young people more broadly, including school leavers, and TAFE and university students.
