Panel 1: Understanding Accountability
In this thought-provoking panel, practitioners and leaders from across the family violence sector will explore how accountability is understood and enacted at individual, organisational, and systemic levels. Through shared insights and robust discussion, panellists will examine how a commitment to accountability shapes safer, more effective responses to family violence, and what it takes to embed this principle into practice from the outset. This session invites reflection on justice, choice, responsibility, and the role of systems in enabling meaningful change.
