Foundations for Action

This report describes the findings of a project aimed at strengthening the foundations for planning and implementing primary prevention workforce development in Victoria.

The key aims of the project were to:   

• Develop a comprehensive view of the nature and diversity of the current workforce, across organisations, roles, sectors, settings, communities and locations   
• Create shared understandings of the workforce through consultation with key stakeholders   
• Outline key considerations for responding to workforce needs and developing the workforce into the future 

Through these aims, the project sought to increase the collective capacity of the sector and government to strategically map out the actions that are needed to develop the primary prevention workforce in Victoria. 

This report was produced by Safe and Equal with funding from the Centre for Workforce, in partnership with Family Safety Victoria, in the Victorian Department of Families, Fairness and Housing during 2023-2024.
