In the DFV context, responses can primarily focus on the needs of adults, and this approach can lead to children being invisible and not receiving the help they need. Children impacted by DFV are among the most vulnerable people in our community, and children from CALD backgrounds, who are structurally marginalised, face even greater challenges. 

This webinar aims to amplify these voices to ensure children from CALD backgrounds and young people are no longer invisible in the development of public policy and programs that impact them. 

The diverse and experienced panel will explore how the policy and service environments can be more inclusive of children’s voices, with the aim of ensuring that children of CALD backgrounds are at the forefront of policy and decision making in the DFV space. 

Thie webinar features special guest and former Australian Youth Representative to the United Nations, Angelica Ojinnaka-Psillakis, a passionate youth affairs advocate, researcher and producer dedicated to shaping change on social inequalities experienced by children and young people.
