CQUni contributes to community march 

Published on 01 November, 2012 

CQUniversity Mackay staff put their best foot forward to show support for Mackay's Reclaim the Night march on the Forgan Bridge recently.

They joined more than 100 other community members who took to the streets to increase community awareness and stamp out sexual violence and assault.

(Absent: Shane Hopkinson and Rebecca Humble) CQUniversity's Queensland Centre for Domestic and Family Violence Research Director Heather Nancarrow said the sexual abuse and violence was not an issue to be dealt with just one night of the year.

"It has to be dealt with every single day," she said.

"We need to challenge that type of behaviour."

A candle ceremony and performance from the Fijian Choir completed the night.

Reclaim the Night is an annual event held across Australia and globally.
