This report measures progress against our strategic goals set out in the Addressing Gender-Based Violence Strategic Action Plan 2023-2027. It represents a culmination of the dedication of our community to addressing this critical issue and reflects the efforts we have undertaken to create a safe and inclusive environment for all.

The report outlines our prevention and response efforts in 2024, outlining our focus on building awareness of and connection with our services.
