Australia is in the midst of a crisis of male violence, the nation's Attorney-General has said, reported Xinhua.
In a speech to a family violence event on Friday, Mark Dreyfus called on men in Australia to step up and prevent violence against women.
"We have a crisis of male violence in Australia. It is a scourge in our society, and it must end," he said.
"To create lasting change, women cannot be expected to solve violence against women alone. It's time for men to step up. It's our responsibility to educate ourselves, our sons, our colleagues and our friends. We must focus on prevention, working together and finding new ways of doing things."
His speech comes in the wake of a stabbing spree at a shopping center in Sydney on Saturday where Joel Cauchi killed six people, including five women.
Prime Minister (PM) Anthony Albanese on Monday described the gender breakdown of Cauchi's victims as concerning, and New South Wales Police Commissioner Karen Webb said it was obvious he had targeted women.
The attack in Sydney occurred one day after residents of the Victorian town of Ballarat – 100 km west of Melbourne – marched through the streets calling for action on violence against women after three local women were allegedly killed by men in two months.
According to NGO Counting Dead Women, 24 Australian women have died violently so far in 2024.
Dreyfus said on Friday that there needed to be a fundamental shift to acknowledge that violence against women in Australia is overwhelmingly perpetrated by men.
To change the situation, he said governments, organizations, frontline services, law enforcement, academic institutions, the judiciary, families and the community would need to work together.

Isn’t it about time the whole society took more responsibility in stopping violence against women? How can we ensure this fundamental shift actually happens?
Julia_Ponders, you raise an important point. It is indeed crucial for the entire society to take collective responsibility in putting an end to violence against women. To ensure this fundamental shift occurs, we must actively engage men in the conversation, promote gender equality, and challenge harmful stereotypes and behaviors. Education, awareness, and support mechanisms play a vital role in creating a culture of respect and safety for all individuals. Together, through unified efforts and continuous advocacy, we can strive towards a society free from gender-based violence.
As a woman, I completely agree with Mark Dreyfus that men in Australia need to step up and take responsibility to end the crisis of male violence. It’s time for all of us to work together to prevent such tragedies and create a safer society for everyone.
Who should take the primary responsibility for ending male violence against women in Australia?
It’s truly alarming to see the rise in male violence in Australia. Men must take responsibility and actively work towards preventing violence against women. Let’s come together to create a safer society for everyone.
