Violence against women and children
Sep 12th, 2024 at 1:27pm
 
https://www.msn.com/en-au/news/australia/plan-in-train-to-stop-violence-against-...

"Experts, stakeholders, communities and people who've experienced domestic and family violence are being asked for their input to create a plan to stop the abuse of Indigenous women and children.

SNAICC - the peak body for Indigenous children - will oversee the consultation process as the National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Family Safety Plan is developed and is calling for submissions.

SNAICC chief executive Catherine Liddle said making a submission will help to ensure the plan reflects the needs and aspirations of Indigenous communities.

"It's vital we emphasise the importance of including voices from across the country, encompassing lived experiences, grassroots perspectives, organisations, and academics to inform a standalone plan to enhance safety for women and children," Ms Liddle said.

First Nations women and children are disproportionately impacted by family, domestic and sexual violence.

Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women are 34 times more likely to be hospitalised due to violence than non-Indigenous women and six times more likely to die because of family violence.

Steering Committee co-chair Muriel Bamblett said the National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Family Safety Plan would be critical to increase safety for Indigenous women and children.

"We want to make sure all perspectives on the solutions, priorities and approaches have every opportunity to inform the National Plan, so it reflects the needs and aspirations of our communities," she said.

Federal Minister for Indigenous Australians Malarndirri McCarthy said ensuring the safety of First Nations women, children and families is a government priority.

"It is unacceptable First Nations women and children continue to experience disproportionately higher rates of family and domestic violence," she said.

"This opportunity for First Nations people with lived experience of family violence, experts, the community-controlled sector and community members to inform the development of the standalone National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Family Safety Plan is key to ensuring practical outcomes and driving meaningful change.

"It is essential these perspectives are heard."

The public submissions process is open until October 25. "



Sideline:-  Am I wrong... of do I keep seeing the same names cropping up again and again with regard to handling of Aboriginal issues?  Is there money involved that needs to be watched carefully?

Yes to both questions. The two names mentioned in the article keep cropping up.

What I want to know is how many similar Family Safety Plans have been devised in the past that have amounted to nothing?

And how long has this other body SNAICC has been around?

And they reckon they have "no voice". Here's another taxpayer funded bureaucratic body specifically for ATSI peoples.

Aptly named as well.(Snake) Grin

I love the way the zealots here rant and carry on about anything but the real issues... say that 10% of a crowd of rioters who might be fired upon by law if they persist are worth saving - MAYBE - and you're advocating killing 90% of them - well - no - the 100% are advocating the potential killing of 90% of them... I'm just saying there might be some worth saving...

But when it comes to violence against women and kids and killing etc, all in the high majority among that 30% of the population up there, meaning a woman is not 15 times more likely to die at home, but actually within that 30%, 35 times more likely - they remain silent...... until Mad Kangaroo comes in and accuses me of being false in my support for action on those issues now for years....

Hey, Skanka!  I will continue to call out the evils of Aboriginalism and all other -isms... and all your bombast and big-mouthing won't stop me.

Deal??  You do the bluster and bulldust and I'll just keep telling the truth...

Damn - them Melbadishu coppers need some training - give it to 'em in volleys - not one at a time... fear and awe ... all fire at once... one round.... rubber bullets and tear gas .... at least that's a bit better than that sheila in the West Bank who flew over from the US to riot and throw stones at Israeli troops.

Of all things, on quora I had a poof ask if he should go to Gaza to help out etc... I said to him he should just learn that not all people are worthy of his support etc... and he came back all guns about what a bastard I am and how I should be careful not to be seen as worthy of his attention..

As usual, I laughed in his internet face, and told him to go to Gaza toute de suite .... here's a one way ticket... go talk to someone you can hang with ... then I suggested he go back to his school and book in for weekend detention to learn some sense and manners.

Who are you we (edit) to compare white man stats to indigenous stats and why should the indigenous have to conform to white man standards?
Remember, according to Adam Goodes and the like; "white man practices bad, indigenous good".

No problem, goosie-coosie - we'll just let them kill women at a rate 35 times higher than the 96% majority do then, eh?

I take it you are being sarcastic.

Not MY comparisons - the figures don't lie...

Wanker .... because we are all supposed to be all equal as Australians.

Referencing Adam Goodes is an absolute joke.
