Activity details
Respect Victoria building a state-wide monitoring and evaluation system that enables ongoing learning about primary prevention progress and impact across Victoria, supported by a statewide Theory of Change and an impact framework.

Implementation progress update
Respect Victoria’s Statewide Theory of Change for the primary prevention of gender-based violence maps short, medium, and long-term outcomes required to enable enduring change. In 2024-25, Respect Victoria worked with a sector-supported Monitoring and Evaluation Advisory Group to translate the Theory of Change into a Statewide Impact Framework with indicators and measures at a systems and individual level. An audit of data readiness accompanied this work.
Victoria’s progress on preventing gender-based violence is currently supported by the Prevention of Family Violence Data Platform. The Data Platform has been structured to mirror the Prevention Domain of the Victorian State Government’s Family Violence Outcomes Framework. Data sources in the Platform are updated annually.
