Join us in Melbourne for
No to Violence Conference 2023: Leading the change to break the cycle of violence
For 30 years, No to Violence has been leading the change to develop safe and effective interventions for men who use family violence.
The No to Violence Conference 2023: Leading the change to break the cycle of violence will bring together national and international leaders in the field to showcase research, innovative thinking and best practice work to help reduce – and end – men’s family violence.
Held over four days in Melbourne at the newly re-opened Rydges Melbourne, the conference will be attended by representatives of governments, peak bodies, practitioners, policy and policing, researchers, the judiciary and victim-survivors. Programming will focus on three key topics: masculinity, children and young people, and best practice.

WHAT TO EXPECT FROM THE PROGRAM
During No to Violence Conference 2023: Leading the change to break the cycle of violence, we will open up challenging conversations about masculinity and how conditioning can form ideas, beliefs and values that lead to unhealthy, healthy, harmful or dangerous behaviours.
We will hear directly from young people about the complex world they are navigating, showcasing innovative programs being launched by young people, for young people, to help break the cycles of violence before they begin.
We will explore ways that we can use what we know about men’s family violence to create a safer future for everyone. We know that practice knowledge and research must inform best practice approaches when engaging men in primary, early and behaviour change interventions.
The conference will energise, motivate, and upskill the sector to engage more men in this process – including people from First Nations, refugee and migrant, LGBTQI+ communities, those with mental health or disability and those in regional and rural communities.
The Federal Government’s National Plan to End Violence against Women and Children has an ambitious goal to end gender-based violence in one generation. To achieve this goal, we need to stop the cycle of violence. And we need to start now.
