As part of our commitment to gender equality we recently delivered a pilot project to examine age appropriate ways of promoting respect and equity among young children, the first of its kind run by a Victorian council. The project highlights the importance of working with children and their families to build safer, more equal communities.
Following the pilot, we released a number of recommendations which highlights the role parents and educators play in challenging gender stereotypes and building children’s social skills so they can enjoy safe and respectful relationships throughout life.
In partnership with Domestic Violence Resource Centre Victoria, we've also developed resources for those who work with young children.
