His work has had pioneering impacts on three overlapping areas: violence prevention policy and programming, respectful relationships education in schools and universities, and efforts to engage men and boys in particular in prevention.<\/p>\n<p>Flood\u2019s most influ<span style=\"font-weight: 300\">ential impact is perhaps his direct contribution to the national framework for the prevention of violence against women and children which now guides prevention policy and practice both nationally and in all Australian states and territories. <\/span><a style=\"font-weight: 300\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ourwatch.org.au\/change-the-story\/\">Change the Story<\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 300\"> is a ground-breaking framework for prevention, released in 2015.

Flood\u2019s expertise also has been instrumental in the development of curricula, evaluation frameworks, interventions, and policy regarding violence prevention.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>A second key area of Flood\u2019s public impact is via his co-authorship of two influential frameworks for healthy relationships education in schools and other settings: <a href=\"https:\/\/eprints.qut.edu.au\/103414\/\">Respectful Relationships Education<\/a> (2009) and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nasasv.org.au\/PDFs\/Standards_Full_Report.pdf\">National Standards for the Primary Prevention of Sexual Assault through Education<\/a> (2009). Flood\u2019s work on respectful relationships education has shaped the design and implementation of numerous respectful relationships programs in <span style=\"font-weight: 300\">schools and among young people.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Flood\u2019s work also has had a profound impact on efforts to engage men and boys in the prevention of domestic and sexual violence. Such efforts are a growing presence in the violence prevention field, and Flood\u2019s work has had a distinct and demonstrable impact on th<span style=\"font-weight: 300\">is work. Flood\u2019s research, including his book <\/span><a style=\"font-weight: 300\" href=\"https:\/\/xyonline.net\/content\/new-book-engaging-men-and-boys-violence-prevention\">Engaging Men and Boys in Violence Prevention<\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 300\"> (2018), is described as guiding a range of Australian prevention projects.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Flood\u2019s work has influenced social change curricula, campaigns, and frameworks in a variety of international contexts. He has been commissioned by a series of national organisations in Australia to write research-based reports to inform their work. He has had direct input into national-level policy forums including the Royal Commission into Family Violence (2016) and Council of Australian Governments (COAG) Summit (2018).<\/p>\n<p>The impact of Associate Professor Flood\u2019s research and engagement is the focus of a QUT webpage <a href=\"https:\/\/www.qut.edu.au\/law\/research\/impacts\/at-the-heart-of-the-matter\/\">here.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Michael Flood with media at NCAS launch 2014\u00a0 MIchael Flood, Pacific Regional Dialogue on Engaging Men &#8211; Fiji 2019\u00a0 QUT Centre for Justice research contributes to the work of preventing domestic and sexual violence Associate Professor Michael Flood\u2019s research has had a significant influence on policy, practice, and programming in the field of the primary<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4341,"featured_media":3999,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[9703],"tags":[28797,9769],"class_list":{"0":"post-3997","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-our-research","8":"tag-domestic-violence-nationalframework-engagingmenandboys-domesticviolenceprevention","9":"tag-violence"},"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.qut.edu.au\/crime-and-justice-research-centre\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3997","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.qut.edu.au\/crime-and-justice-research-centre\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.qut.edu.au\/crime-and-justice-research-centre\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.qut.edu.au\/crime-and-justice-research-centre\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4341"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.qut.edu.au\/crime-and-justice-research-centre\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3997"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.qut.edu.au\/crime-and-justice-research-centre\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3997\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4000,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.qut.edu.au\/crime-and-justice-research-centre\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3997\/revisions\/4000"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.qut.edu.au\/crime-and-justice-research-centre\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3999"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.qut.edu.au\/crime-and-justice-research-centre\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3997"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.qut.edu.au\/crime-and-justice-research-centre\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3997"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.qut.edu.au\/crime-and-justice-research-centre\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3997"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
