Australia’s National Research Organisation for Women’s Safety (ANROWS) was established by the Commonwealth, state and territory governments under Australia’s first National Plan to Reduce Violence against Women and their Children (2010–2022). As an ongoing partner to the National Plan, ANROWS continues to build, strengthen and translate the evidence base that informs the current National Plan to End Violence against Women and Children (2022–2032).
With more than 150 research projects led, commissioned or contributed to, ANROWS delivers targeted evidence to inform practice, policy, and systems reform. We engage closely with victim-survivors, communities, service providers, governments and researchers to ensure our work reflects lived experience and supports collective action.
Big hART is Australia's largest arts and social change organisation. Started in North West Tasmania 32 years ago, Big hART has been telling invisible stories and using ground-breaking arts practice to connect with people and communities that remain unseen. Through bringing virtuosic arts practitioners into contact with everyday Australians, we support the creation of a diverse range of projects that meet people where they are, strategically creating change through arts, practice, community, and collaboration.
