Monash Gender and Family Violence Prevention Centre
View
The Monash Gender and Family Violence Prevention Centre is at the forefront of research and education aimed at preventing family violence. The centre is contributing to transformative social change aimed at ending family violence by providing an evidence base for policy change that better supports and protects those experiencing family violence and addresses the cultural and economic drivers that underpin it.
In 2021 Monash University was awarded $8.67 million from the Victorian Government for critical research, the creation of workforce pathways and better legal support for family violence victim-survivors. The Monash Gender and Family Violence Prevention Centre is leading the program and funding will create 24 Graduate Certificate of Family Violence Prevention scholarships for people with lived experience, PhD and post doctoral research scholarships, and research associate and professional roles.

Monash Gender, Peace & Security Centre's vision is to build globally-recognised, gender-inclusive research evidence to deliver peace and security globally. Research informs scholarly debate, policy development and implementation, and public understanding about the gendered nature of insecurity and the search for peace. In addition to research with international, government and industry partners, community-engagement with civil society, and academic publications, Monash GPS academics engage in undergraduate and graduate teaching, executive education and PhD supervision.
In 2021, research on misogyny and violent extremism during COVID-19 was commissioned by ASEAN’s Senior Officials Meeting on Transnational Crime, and was disseminated at speaking invitations to major international policy meetings.
XYX Lab
View
Monash Art Design and Architecture's XYX Lab is a team of experienced design researchers exploring gender-sensitive design practices and theory. Operating at the intersection of gender, identity, urban space and advocacy, researchers come together with planners, policy makers, local government and stakeholders to make tangible the experiences of underrepresented communities in urban space and planning.
In 2021 Routledge published Contentious Cities: Design and the Gendered Production of Space edited by researchers from the XYX Lab. The book positions design as a central component in how cities produce, construct, represent and materialise gendered spatial practices, it brings together practice and theory to critique, question and enable solutions that challenge the root causes of gender inequalities in cities. Through a rich array of case-studies, practice-led interventions, and historical and theoretical perspectives, it examines important issues that affect the ways in which women, and people of diverse gender and sexual identities experience and participate in cities.
