What Exactly Is Coercive Control?

Об эпизоде

<p>Today is a very special episode about a very important issue. Yesterday was International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women and kicks off 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence. This important campaign focuses on driving action amongst individuals and organisations around the world calling for the prevention and elimination of violence against women and girls. Coercive Control is a term we hear a lot but not so easy to spot. So we wanted to get an expert in to help us understand this insidious form of abuse, and how to protect yourself, your kids and how to support a friend if you’re worried she’s caught in an abusive relationship.  </p><p> </p><p>Kylie Lynch and her team run an awesome initiative called “Safer Together”, which really opens up the conversation and creates a safe space for everyone, including men and boys, to engage in this issue. The sessions are free to the community, so get in touch if you want to bring “Safer Together” to your workplace, school or club.</p><p><br></p><p>To donate visit wacf.org.au ❤️</p><p>See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.</p>
