A theory of change is a way of stepping through the actions that need to be taken for complex and long-term social transformation, and the principles or assumptions behind such actions. This ‘emerging theory of change’ is designed to align with the outcomes and objectives of the National Plan to Reduce Violence against Women and their Children 2010–2022. It will be refined through an upcoming research and consultation process for a new national framework, being developed to guide the collective work of stakeholders in the area of primary prevention.
