SUMMARY:Embedding Lived Experience Forum | WHISE
DESCRIPTION:Join Promoting Respect and Equity Together (PRET) Partnership leaders and practitioners on Thursday 19 November 2026 for a half-day forum exploring how we can strengthen and sustain lived experience leadership in the primary prevention of gender-based violence. \nOver the past year\, the PRET Lived Experience Community of Practice has generated valuable insights into what it takes to genuinely centre lived experience in prevention work. This forum will bring those learnings to the forefront through a lived experience panel\, discussion of the PRET Lived Experience Framework\, and participant-led conversations focused on organisational readiness\, capability and collective action. \nParticipants will hear directly from Community of Practice members about barriers and enablers\, explore practical approaches to embedding lived experience\, and contribute to shaping the next phase of this work across the Partnership. \nRegister here

SUMMARY:
DESCRIPTION:VACCA launches Aboriginal Research and Evidence Hub \nThe Centre is delighted to be part of the launch of VACCA’s new Aboriginal Research and Evidence Hub\, with Mandy Charman joining the panel discussion exploring the importance of Aboriginal-led research and evaluation and the role of evidence in informing policy and practice. \nThe new Hub brings together VACCA’s growing collection of research\, evaluation findings and resources in one dedicated online space\, grounded in Aboriginal ways of knowing\, being and doing. \nFor the broader child and family services sector\, the launch is also an important opportunity to learn from evidence generated within the context of service delivery. Sharing research and evaluation across organisations strengthens our collective knowledge\, creates opportunities to learn from different approaches\, and helps us build on what is already known rather than starting from scratch. \nThrough OPEN\, the Centre has long championed the value of bringing together diverse forms of knowledge\, evidence and practice expertise. We are particularly pleased to celebrate this significant milestone with VACCA and the contribution its Aboriginal-led research and evaluation can make to learning across the sector. \n  \nVACCA Aboriginal Research and Evidence Hub Launch Webinar \n📆Thursday 19 November 2026 \n🕛11:00–11:45am \n💻Free online event \nThe launch event will feature the opportunity to hear: \n\nAn opening address by Aunty Muriel Bamblett\, VACCA CEO\nA panel discussion exploring the importance of Aboriginal-led research and evaluation\, highlighting examples of VACCA’s work\, and how evidence can inform policy and practice\nAn introduction to the new Hub including an overview of its resources\n\n  \nEveryone is welcome to attend online for this hybrid event. \n  \nRegister here.
