The N-MESC report aimed to add to the evidence base informing violence prevention initiatives with people from N-MESCs by: 


  • benchmarking understanding and attitudes regarding violence against women, attitudes towards gender equality and intention to intervene when witnessing abuse or disrespect of women 
  • identifying gaps in understanding or particularly problematic attitudes 
  • identifying demographic, attitudinal and contextual factors that are associated with gaps in understanding and problematic attitudes.
