What Happens Next?
How Do We Build a Future Where Everyone Feels Safe? | 99 

What if we could actually end gender-based violence? In this eye-opening episode of Monash University’s “What Happens Next?”, Dr Susan Carland and a team of leading experts from Monash and beyond address one of Australia's most urgent social challenges.

You’ll learn why violence against women happens – and more importantly, how we can stop it. These guests – Professor Kate Fitz-Gibbon, former Victims of Crime Commissioner Fiona McCormack AM, Professor Jane Fisher, Professor Steven Roberts, Dr Stephanie Wescott and Associate Professor Charles Livingstone – aren't just talking theory; they're mapping out practical solutions to dismantle the systems that perpetuate harm.

From social media's toxic masculinity problem to the surprising link between gambling and relationship violence, this episode will challenge you to think differently about prevention, showing it's not just about school programs, but transforming our broader culture – workplaces, media and online spaces.

You’ll also learn how to genuinely support victim-survivors in a way that makes them feel heard and puts control back in their hands.

We all play a role in the effort to eliminate gender-based violence. Are you ready to be part of the solution?

A full transcript of this episode is available on Monash Lens.
