Surveys

The Backbone Collective is the first and only organisation to monitor the effectiveness of the system through the eyes of women and children escaping violence. Backbone surveys hundreds of women via its safe and confidential online platform, so we are able to gather extensive amounts of information on many issues for relatively low cost. 


Women see the Backbone surveys as a powerful way to have their views taken into account and put forward to promote change.

NZ Police response to family and sexual violence


Improving the NZ Police response to family and sexual violence

On 1 September 2022 Backbone released an anonymous survey, for women, trans and non-binary people, who are 16+, live in Aotearoa New Zealand and have experienced family violence or sexual violence, to share their feedback on how the police responded to them and ideas for how to improve the police response to family and sexual violence. The survey closed 31 October 2022.
