You are invited to Turning Evidence into Action - a multi-faceted event aiming to:

provide best practice examples to support the launch of signature initiatives for Respect 2040 Great South Coast (what does Respect 2040 want to be known for?)
understand what is already happening across the region; and
gain consensus and commence planning for collective action

The day will commence with an introductory session to explore the evidence for gender equality and primary prevention, before launching into concurrent proven and promising practice sessions to hear from national and international practitioners who will present their proven or promising practice initiatives then work with participants to determine how we turn the evidence into local action.
