We were delighted to have such a great turn-out at our first in-person Implementation Networking Event in 2022 in the beautiful venue of the Great Hall of Queen's University Belfast on 14th June.
Our excellent speakers delivered insightful and engaging presentations on 'Tackling Gender-Based Violence: Implementing good practice on the ground.'
Taken from the youth workshop held at the Erasmus+ UK 'My Story' Annual Conference 2015. Originally presented by Fumie Izaki and Simon Chambers, joint leads for youth at the Erasmus+ UK National Agency.
The theme for this presentation is inclusion and diversity, and how Erasmus+ can benefit young people with fewer opportunities. It includes a presentation from a beneficiary with experience of inclusion and diversity in Erasmus+ youth projects, highlighting the challenges and how these can be overcome.
The Fairer Fife Commission was established by Fife Council in September 2014 to take a strategic overview of the scale, scope and nature of poverty in Fife and the effectiveness of activity currently undertaken to address such poverty. The Commission was tasked to report with recommendations to Fife Council and Fife Partnership by November 2015.
Digital inclusion for older isolated people - our learning journey, pop up un...NHS England
Expo is the most significant annual health and social care event in the calendar, uniting more NHS and care leaders, commissioners, clinicians, voluntary sector partners, innovators and media than any other health and care event.
Expo 15 returned to Manchester and was hosted once again by NHS England. Around 5000 people a day from health and care, the voluntary sector, local government, and industry joined together at Manchester Central Convention Centre for two packed days of speakers, workshops, exhibitions and professional development.
This year, Expo was more relevant and engaging than ever before, happening within the first 100 days of the new Government, and almost 12 months after the publication of the NHS Five Year Forward View. It was also a great opportunity to check on and learn from the progress of Greater Manchester as the area prepares to take over a £6 billion devolved health and social care budget, pledging to integrate hospital, community, primary and social care and vastly improve health and well-being.

Russian anarchist and anti-war movement in the third year of full-scale warAntti Rautiainen
Anarchist group ANA Regensburg hosted my online-presentation on 16th of May 2024, in which I discussed tactics of anti-war activism in Russia, and reasons why the anti-war movement has not been able to make an impact to change the course of events yet. Cases of anarchists repressed for anti-war activities are presented, as well as strategies of support for political prisoners, and modest successes in supporting their struggles.

22. Survivor engagement - The Hear Her Voice project sought
to capture the lived experiences of survivors of domestic
abuse. Through focus groups with over 90 women engaged
in the eight Women’s Aid groups across Northern Ireland
during 2021, survivors shared their stories of domestic
abuse and its lasting impact on their lives, families and
future. The findings were launched 25th November 2021 –
attended by many of our ‘experts by experience’
23. What did the 91 women tell us?
Unfortunately, very
similar lived
experiences to those
outlined in Bringing
It Out in the Open,
research conducted
30 year’s earlier
24.
25. How did they tell us?
• Words – sharing
their lived
experience
• Creative writing
• Kintsugi
• Their Journey
through Art
• Photography
• AND
• VOICE!!!

29. How did we use it?
Influencing & Shaping Policy: A seismic shift!
• Domestic Abuse & Civil Proceedings Act
• Section 28 – DomesticAbuse Waiver (Family
Courts)
• The Justice (Sexual Offences & Human
Trafficking) Bill:
• Abolishes ‘Rough Sex’ defence
• makes non-fatalstrangulationa specific crime
• threating to publishimage-based violence a crime
• Enhanced legal protections for domestic abuse
victims
• The Protection from Stalking Bill
• Domestic Abuse (Safe Leave) Bill
30. How did we use it?
Bringing the lived experience into External
Training:-
• PSNI
• PPS
• DOJ Global Online Package
• Health Trusts
• Education Authority
• Guardian ad litem
31.
32. What did we learn?
The power of the lived experience shaping
policy, practice and service provision
This is only the start of this journey of
positive change ………
33. Why do we need a Violence
Against Women and Girls
Strategy in NI?
34. Key factor is that any new
strategy needs appropriate
funding stream to make it work
together with commitment from
government for real positive
change to the lives of women
and girls

53. An update on the NI Strategy on
Ending Violence Against
Women and Girls
A presentation to the Implementation Network
14 June 2022
Claire Archbold and Geraldine Fee
54. Is today not supposed to be about practice?
• Yes –this is a preview of forthcoming attractions – there’ll be more
about our strategic work in Dublin in November
• One of the four pillars of effective work in this area is joined-up
service delivery
• We don’t end violence against women and girls by having a paper
strategy, the strategy has to identify and deliver consistent best
practice services to real people
• A key theme of our co-design will be to identify, nurture and spread
best practice
55. What is our mandate?
A TEO-led Cross-Departmental Strategy which is:
• Gender specific
• Intersectional
• Co-designed
• Evidence-based and data-driven
• Ready for public consultationby December 2022
• For rolling forward within PfG
56. What is our vision?
A proposed vision was included in the Call for Views
• Every woman and girl is safe in our communities,feels safe and
can reach their potential
• We have a society in which violence against women is not
tolerated in any form, in which all victims are supported, and
perpetrators are held to account
57. Why does it matter?
• 1 in 3 womenglobally experience violence in their lifetime
• 1 in 5 women in NI experience domestic abuse
• An incident of domesticabuse on average every 16 minutes in NI
• 16% of young people can recognise a coercively controlling relationship
• 1 in 2 womenin GB feel unsafe when out alone at night
• Individual and intergenerational trauma
• Grit in the machine – social and economiccost hampering workof all Departments
• Cracking this wicked problem contributes directly to 10 of 12 ODP outcomes
58. What is the shape of the
problem?
The Pyramid
Model – we need to
tackle the root
causes
Offences – include
sexual offences,
stalking, coercion
59. What can be done to change it?
Four pillars of activity from the Istanbul Convention are
– prevention, protection, prosecution, and co-ordinated
policies:
• Criminal offences – by prosecution and protection
• Unwanted behaviours – by protection and prevention
• Damaging attitudes – by early intervention
preventative measures
• Effectively – by working together and mainstreaming
60. Lots of good strategies, policies and services
• Domestic and Sexual Abuse Strategy
• Gender Equality Strategy
• Strategy on Women and Girls…in the justice system
• Child Care Strategy
• Gillen Review
• Marrinan Review
• Hate Crime Consultation
• New Beginnings in Employment
• LGBTQIA+ Strategy
• Community Safety Strategy
• Anti-poverty Strategy
• Well-being Framework
…but we need to fill the gaps , join the dots
and work together effectively
61. What is the key determinant of success?
• Engaged relationships for effective
collaborative delivery
• The right people in the right place
• The ability to measure change
consistentlyacross government
62. A whole of government and whole of society
approach
• Working to agreed common principles
• Amplifying communication and engagement across sectors
• Enhancing policy co-ordination and data collection
• Using smart commissioning
• Mainstreaming the issue in all we do
• Stepping out of our silos
63. What are we doing at the minute?
• Response to Call for Views – 661 questionnaires and 91 written responses
• Broad research programme under way
• Preparing cross-sectoral co-design model
• Aiming for a draft Framework Strategy for consultation by December 2022
(subject to resources)
• Seven year delivery programme
64. What themes are emerging?
• Not going to pre-empt the co-design – but some thoughts
about emerging themes in other places
• The need for good data to drive practice
• Public health approach to violence prevention
• Trauma informed policy and practice
• Early intervention and education with a view to culture change
• Perpetrator programmes
• A whole of government and whole of society approach
65. What can you do?
