This project aims to investigate policy failure of gender equality initiatives and specifically, how institutional and individual resistance to gender equality is applied and adapted over time and across different contexts in construction, Australia’s most male dominated sector. This project expects to generate new knowledge for policy authors in government and business, helping them deliver robust policy outcomes to shift gender equality in male dominated sectors. This project should provide significant social and economic benefits to Australia, enabling greater attraction and retention of women to construction jobs, reducing the sectors critical skills shortage.

Building Durable Responses to Gender Inequality in Indonesia. This project aims to produce the first longitudinal and comparative study of which aspects of gender equity and women’s empowerment interventions prove most durable for addressing gender inequality in Indonesia, despite external shocks such as the pandemic. The project produces an analysis of how women might remain resilient over time and the pathways by which durability is achieved in improving women's wellbeing and gender relations ....Building Durable Responses to Gender Inequality in Indonesia. This project aims to produce the first longitudinal and comparative study of which aspects of gender equity and women’s empowerment interventions prove most durable for addressing gender inequality in Indonesia, despite external shocks such as the pandemic. The project produces an analysis of how women might remain resilient over time and the pathways by which durability is achieved in improving women's wellbeing and gender relations in communities, and inclusive policies and institutions. Analysis will generate, translate and share new knowledge benefiting civil society partners, academics, policy makers and development practitioners in Indonesia, Australia and beyond, so gender equality interventions can better withstand future shocks.Read moreRead less

This project addresses the significant national problem of intimate partner financial abuse, which continues long after women leave abusive relationships. It works with frontline service providers and victim survivors to identify how financial abuse is perpetrated through financial, legal and government systems, and develops a framework for understanding post-separation financial violence. It harnesses policymakers' and practitioners' expertise through co-design workshops to develop practical solutions and a framework to implement them. The application of Safety by Design principles within implicated systems will benefit affected families, by closing down avenues for the perpetration of financial abuse.Read moreRead less
