520 _aOur Watch commissioned the Centre for Social Impact, Swinburne University, to conduct an independent evaluation of this project. The evaluation aimed to provide specific insights into the key drivers and barriers encountered in addressing violence against women in culturally diverse communities. Qualitative evaluation methods were employed, including key informant interviews, and staff and community focus groups. Evaluation questions focused on the process of implementation to ultimately inform the development of the violence prevention framework within culturally diverse communities. Participant feedback indicated that this project has had a positive impact across both implementation sites. In the Hamdel project, discussions with the Iranian women indicated a marked increase in understanding of violence against women, largely attributed to awareness education, which was embedded into a Persian women’s group. Young male participants in the respectful relationship/soccer program also demonstrated increased knowledge and awareness. Several Iranian women also discussed their intention to disseminate this knowledge more broadly in their communities. (From the Executive summary). The toolkit (5278) is and more information about the project is available on the Our Watch website. Record #5279
