The Albanese government is launching a new campaign to improve Australian understanding and attitudes on consent and respectful relationships.

The campaign is intended to reduce sexual violence in Australia by helping adults be informed about consent so that they can feel comfortable and confident in discussing consent with young people. There can be high levels of confusion around the definition of consent and who is accountable in non-consensual situations.
