In response to the rising concern over violence against women, the state of Victoria in Australia recently appointed an official specifically dedicated to ‘Men’s Behavior Change’. This role is designed to focus on preventing gender-based violence through programs and policies that target changes in men’s behavior.
This initiative is a part of Victoria’s broader strategy to fight against domestic violence and instill a culture of respect for women. The appointed official will work collaboratively with several governmental and non-governmental organizations to address this issue holistically.
