Our Watch is a national leader in the primary prevention of violence against women and their children in Australia.
Healthy masculinities, and working with men and boys
We’ve translated Men in focus into videos, guides and infographics to support people working to engage men and boys in preventing violence against women.
The evidence tells us that all men, especially those in leadership roles and positions of power, can play a significant part in the change needed to end sexism and disrespect towards women that leads to violence.
Developed through consultation with practitioners and other experts, these accessible resources support practitioners working with men and boys to prevent violence against women by building empathy, fostering self-awareness and motivation, and managing backlash and resistance.
Video series: Working together to end violence against women
| This collection of 8 short videos explains concepts from Men in focus. Learn about the links between socially dominant forms of masculinity and men’s violence against women, and why working with men and boys is crucial to ending men’s violence against women. |
