There are documented experiences of abuse, exclusion and institutional failure within the Australian Defence Force, and the lasting effects of these experiences have immense impacts on veteran identity, wellbeing and trust.
Understanding these experiences is difficult, but involves looking beyond individual incidents to the systems, cultures and responses that can allow harm to occur, or compound it afterwards.
We invite you to hear these perspectives with an open mind, and consider what it takes not only to acknowledge institutional harm, but to respond to it with greater responsibility, care and lasting change.
