This presentation will outline the GLOVE project, funded from 2006-2009 by the Australian Research Council in partnership with the Victorian Health Promotion Foundation (VicHealth).  The project is working with four Australian local governments (one inner suburb, one outer suburb, one regional centre, and one rural municipality) to develop integrated violence prevention strategies.  The presentation will provide the background to the work, including the policy constraints and opportunities to develop gender- mainstreamed integrated violence prevention at the local level. 

Dr. Carolyn Whitzman is an expert in the prevention of violence in urban areas, and co-author of "Safe Cities: guidelines for planning, design, and management" (1995), which has been adopted in planning and design subjects around the world.  Formerly the Coordinator of the City of Toronto Safe City Committee from 1989 to 1999, she is now a senior lecturer in Social Planning at the University of Melbourne, a Board member of Women in Cities International, and leads the Planning for Health and Well-being Project at the Planning Institute of Australia (Victoria).
