Evidence Platform
The Australian Research Council (ARC) Centre of Excellence for the Elimination of Violence Against Women (CEVAW) is the world's first Centre to address the full range of forms of violence against women in Australia and the Indo-Pacific region.
Our vision is to generate fundamental, interdisciplinary knowledge on the causes, contexts and most effective responses to violence and mobilise that research into innovative solutions and strengthened capacity to drive the elimination of violence against women.
We invite you to read our 2025 Annual Report!

The artwork used in this report was designed by artist Molly Hunt (@mollyhunt4food), a Balanggarra and Yolngu woman from the Kimberley. It is about connections: how to bring together human, more-than-human and other entities in Australia and the Indo-Pacific region. It represents the work and ethos of CEVAW to drive co-designed research across the Indo-Pacific region and also the connection of Indigenous and other first peoples to waterways.
Funded by the Australian Government through the Australian Research Council (ARC) project number CE230100004.
