In acting on the Adelaide Synod 2021 motion, Diocesan Council is committed to a process of education, policy making and lament in accordance with the Ten Commitments. The education process began with initial training sessions with Women’s Safety Services SA in 2020 and 2021, targeting clergy. A further Motivating Action Through Empowerment (MATE) ‘train the trainer’ session was held in September 2022 involving 15 people from the South Australian Province.  Graduates from this session are now equipped to train people in their own ministry contexts. The MATE Bystander training program is an effective prevention strategy teaching active bystander approaches to gender-based violence. Participants in this and future training will gain insight into how to send messages of accountability to those who enact domestic and family violence. More information on this and other training and Diocesan initiatives on this issue are to follow. Further information and resources on this issue, made available by the Survivor Advocate, Sharon Lockwood, can be found on the Anglican Diocese of Adelaide website link below.  Posters displaying the Ten Commitments have been provided to each Anglican site for placing on parish noticeboards. Postcards have also been made available and should your parish require more than that provided, please contact  support@adelaideanglicans.com
