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.

Surveys

Pleas view our public surveys below. From time to time Backbone undertakes other smaller survey and consultation projects which are not widely advertised or shared on our website. Reports related to these consultations are sometimes included on our website and you can head over to the reports page to read all our published reports.
