The Ripple Effect Conference brings together leaders, practitioners, iwi, community organisations and agencies for two days to accelerate primary prevention of family and sexual violence across Aotearoa. This year the focus is on turning individual actions (ripples) into coordinated, sustained, collective impact (waves).

This alignment ensures the conference contributes to national priorities while remaining grounded in local need.

Family and sexual violence continue to place significant pressure on whānau, communities and frontline services.This conference will respond to a clear community call for practical tools, stronger collaboration, kaimahi wellbeing, innovation, and visible measurable impact.
