Stopping Violence: Innovations & Partnerships for Sustainable Change

16th - 18th February 2011
Heritage Hotel, Auckland
New Zealand

Naumai, hāeremai, piki mai e te manuhiri tūārangi mo tēnei kaupapa tino nui huihuinga.
Ko te tapu o te whare tangata, me te ahu atua o ngā tama ariki

Welcome, welcome come forth visitors from afar for this important conference.
Let us hold the sacredness of our bearers of life, let us make it safe for our future leaders, let us assist them to aspire to their individual greatness.

The abuse and exploitation of women is a social problem of epidemic proportions which adversely affects the health of millions of women each year.  Substantial progress has been made in raising awareness about violence against women and children, yet the complexity of violence begs collaborative partnerships and innovations to create social change.  This conference is an excellent international opportunity for all engaged in stopping violence to come together and share knowledge, experience and innovations.

Participants from across the health disciplines as well as from government, non-government and community organisations are welcome.

Conference themes include:
  • Action across the lifespan
  • Cross-sector collaboration and partnerships
  • Innovative interventions
  • Policy to practice
  • Research to reality
  • Cultural contexts across the globe
