Networks

We will soon be enabling networks to be set up. In them Alliance members can connect with others across Australia who share an interest in a specific issue related to LGBT wellbeing - e.g. indigenous health, trans issues, research, anti-violence work. They can debate, share information, resources and strategies, and work collaboratively. Their expertise will also benefit other Alliance activities.

So - think about the kinds of networks you would like to be engaged in and watch this space!

  • Wear It With Pride

    Wear It With Pride is the Alliance's national education campaign on the same-sex relationships law reform. 85 Commonwealth laws were changed to remove discrimination against same-sex couples, but many people remain unaware of the benefits and responsibilities that these reforms have brought them. T-shirts inspired by the reforms are helping us to spread the word. We want you to design a Tshirt or be an 'influencer'. Find out more
