Over the past year, there’s been pressure on the Morrison government to step up and take significant action on women’s safety, as rates of sexual violence have increased.

And in the wake of Brittany Higgins and Grace Tame’s campaigning - the federal government has released a draft plan that seeks to end violence against women and children. 

However, survivors and experts are disappointed with the draft and the lack of transparency that went into its formulation - and have demanded it be withdrawn and amended. 

Today, journalist and contributor to The Saturday Paper Kristine Ziwica on the shortcomings of the National Plan to End Violence against Women and Children and what it means for women over the next decade.
