On 1 January 2026, The National Higher Education Code to Prevent and Respond to Gender-based Violence (the Code) became mandatory for all Australian higher education providers. The Code requires that universities take a whole-of-organisation approach to preventing and responding to gender-based violence. The Code establishes shared national expectations across seven areas: accountable leadership and governance, safe environments and systems, knowledge and capability building, safety and support, safe processes, data and evidence, and safe student accommodation. The Code requires universities to deliver evidence-based prevention education and specialised training to students, staff and leaders, with content developed in collaboration with subject matter experts and those with lived experience. The Senior Coordinator, Prevention Learning & Development role is central to ensuring RMIT meets its obligations under the Code.
