No to Violence 2026 National Conference Website
No To Violence (NTV) is the largest peak body in Australia for organisations and individuals who work with men to end family violence. The NTV team works for members and our community through: advocacy, training, sector development and the Men’s Referral Service.
NEED
No to Violence, in collaboration with Stopping Family Violence and SPEAQ, needed a website to advertise their upcoming event and enable participants to register and as a point of contact and information portal for the 2026 National Conference
Create a reusable platform so that it can be cloned and re-purposed for events as well as conferences
The site needs to be easily managed and maintained by NTV staff
SOLUTION
Use the same platform as NTV are using for the Service Directory (i.e. using Python on the Jango Framework) as it is a more secure and easier to program, therefore more cost effective than WordPress
Enable the wireframe to be easily duplicated, clothed and populated for multiple events as required
Manage the registrations and payments function through SmartForms which NTV already has enabled due to its reliability as a secure payment platform
Onboarding of core staff to the CMS in order to expedite the build was smooth due to Wagtail’s ease of use and this proved highly effective to stay on a tight schedule
