Safeguarding Rural Australia: Addressing violence in rural settings

该项目将产生的成果将解决澳大利亚的国家优先事项-保护，并有利于加强遭受高暴力率的农村社区的社会结构。为什么农村社区的男子与城市地区的男子相比，在与暴力有关的可预防伤害、发病率和死亡率方面更高，人们对此知之甚少。对于土著男子和非土著男子之间的差异，人们所知更少。该项目将使人们对这些问题有新的认识，并为预防和控制农村环境中的暴力行为制定新的模式，使政府和社区机构中的广大最终用户受益。

The project will produce outcomes that address the national priority of safeguarding Australia and are of benefit to srengthtening the social fabric of rural communities experiencing high rates of violence. Little is known about why men in rural communities have higher rates of preventable injury, morbidity and mortality associated with violence compared to men from urban areas. Even less is known about the differences between Indigenous and non-Indigenous men. The project will shed new light on these problems and develop new models for the prevention and control of violence in rural settings of benefit to a wide range of end users in government and community agencies.
