FORUM: Reporting Domestic and Family Violence: How far have we come in Queensland?

If you weren't able to join in online via Facebook on Monday evening, June 15, 2020, please watch the video of this important and insightful forum that is a must for anyone working in a newsroom or in frontline services.

Together we can make things so much better.

Our thanks go to the Minister for Domestic and Family Violence Prevention, Di Farmer; Kay McGrath, the co-chair of the Domestic and Family Violence Prevention Council; Cathie Schnitzerling, ABC; Antonia Burke, We Al-li; Kylie Lang, The Courier-Mail; Angela Lynch, Women's Legal Service Qld; Holly Green, Network TEN; and Bob Atkinson, co-chair of the Domestic and Family Violence Prevention Council.

Due to technical reasons on the night, we weren't able to show two pre-recorded video segments from Our Watch CEO Patty Kinnersly and "Bianca", an articulate survivor with lived experience of violence in the home. These have been separately uploaded and we would encourage you to view both.

Finally, our huge thanks go to the ABC for allowing use of their South Bank auditorium and for lending us two brilliant technicians, Tim Christie and Peter Scott.
