Description

Kerry Chikarovski talks about her work with Our Watch and shares her insights on family violence.  Overall she discusses how there is an improved understanding of family violence in the community and also much more public discussion about it.  However the fact remains one woman a week still dies at the hands of her partner.  In particular the message she communicates is that family violence is not something that happens "over there" but rather is much deeper in our society than that and goes back to lack of respect for women on a broader level.  For more see:
