Family/domestic intimate partner & sexual violence against women
That ACT Labor commits to the following:1. Refusing to tolerate and accept preventable harm and deaths caused by men's violence in their intimate relationships & families, in workplaces and community settings, as well as in our broader society
2. When in Government, ACT Labor will invest in the necessary infrastructure and programs to ensure frontline response services responding to violence, prevention programs, justice responses proportionate to the scale, harms and impact of FDIPS violence
3. Advocating to other Australian governments for investments that allow national coordination and response sufficient to the unmet needs for prevention, response and justice responses to men's FDIPS violence against women, children, gender diverse and non-binary folx, and other men in our community.
4. Working effectively and in consultation with community, community-based agencies, and the evidence base for effective prevention of FDIPSV, response and recovery for victims-survivors, and justice responses that hold people who use violence appropriately accountable
5. That safety and wellbeing of women and children are prioritised over minimising men's violence or protecting fragile masculinities
6. That the needs of children affected by violence (and children young people who use violence) are seen and responded to in their own right, not as appendages to their parents
