Public Demands Stronger Action on Gender Violence | Perth News
Description
Australia’s public is sounding the alarm: a new poll reveals just 27% believe the government’s response to surging gender-based violence allegations — including those involving athletes and students — has been adequate. With domestic violence declared a national crisis two years ago, 71% say action was too slow, and over 60% feel prevention efforts fall short. WAGEC’s CEO warns that without consistent funding and long-term reforms, the pace of change won’t match the scale of the problem — and the public is ready to demand more. Their annual walk to end gender-based violence is set to draw massive crowds, with top activists rallying for urgent, sustained investment in solutions.
