Greetings everyone,

This is to introduce the Preventing Sexual Violence in Aotearoa New Zealand Survey, designed by Tauiwi Caucus of TE OHAAKII A HINE NATIONAL NETWORK ENDING SEXUAL VIOLENCE TOGETHER (TOAH-NNEST). 

This survey is for any community group, ngo, or state sector agency delivering or participating in any kind of primary prevention of sexual violence in our Tauiwi and Bicultural communities.  Kaupapa Maori activities are not included as these are covered by Nga Kaitiaki Mauri.  Primary Prevention of sexual violence refers to activities that seek to prevent sexual violence before it occurs, by educating people about the issue of sexual violence and by promoting safe and respectful environments, behaviours and social norms.

We are collecting this information because until we know which groups are delivering what programmes, we cannot co-ordinate our activities or advocate for resources to fill any gaps our communities have.  Our aim is to work towards better practise in sexual violence prevention, and ultimately the elimination of sexual violence in our communities. 

Please take the time to fill in this survey if you are working to prevent sexual violence before it happens.  The survey is easy to use and will take a maximum of 45 minutes unless your agency or group delivers a number of prevention programmes, in which case it could take a little longer.

Please also forward this information through any networks you belong to in which prevention of sexual violence activities may be happening.

You can complete the survey in one sitting, or save your answers and go back to it again from the same computer.  The closing date for completing the survey is Monday June 18.
