She also announced an extra AU$3 million over three years as support for Our Watch, the national foundation for the prevention of violence against women and their children.<\/p><p>To celebrate and reflect on the impact of family violence reforms, Ms. Marginson gave a brief history of the advocacy from a multicultural lens. She said that the Filipino-led campaign in 1989 and throughout the 1990s scandalized the Australian government due to 18 murders and disappearances of Filipino women and children during that period. The campaign led to the 1995 amendments on domestic violence provisions to the\u00a0<em>1975 Commonwealth Family Law Act<\/em>, which shifted Australian public attitude about the problem.<\/p><p>In 1996, a two-day conference titled \u201cNot the Same\u201d looked at strategies to address domestic violence and sexual assault for non-English speaking women. The initiative provided funding to service providers but not grassroots groups. Nonetheless, a Filipino-led group was able to develop a Women\u2019s Leadership Course given to 2,000 community-based women. True to her advocacy, Ms. Marginson also contributed to the\u00a0<em>2015 Royal Commission Inquiry into Family Violence<\/em>.<\/p><p>The group called for more collaboration with community leaders at the grassroots level rather than them vying for a small slice from service providers.
