The Respect Competition invites students in Years 4–9 across Australia to show what respect looks like in their world. The Australian Government Department of Social Services has launched the Stop it At the Start campaign. This community engagement initiative aims to prevent gender-based violence by influencing change in attitudes and behaviours that support or condone gender-based violence. It is a part of the National Plan to End Violence against Women and Children 2022-32.

Entries close on 15 September 2024.
