16.01.2022 "SMALL TOWN QUEER" online digital exhibition was just launched tody Small Town Queer explores the rich tapestry of Tweed's LGBTQIA+ history from the early 1900...s to the present, uncovering local stories of sexual liberation, love, activism, discrimination, defiance, performance, spaces, places and local business.

16.01.2022 Education ministry guidelines are intended to emphasise inclusion and diversity and reflect ‘shifting societal norms’

14.01.2022 Have a read of this strong and promising response from the NSW Education Department about our concerns with One Nation NSW’s Ignorance in Education Bill. It re...iterates what we know to be true that the role of our school system is to support all students to learn and grow in an inclusive environment that welcomes them for who they are. One Nation NSW’s Ignorance in Education Bill is a threat to inclusion. It punishes teachers and counsellors who affirm the identities of trans and gender diverse students, and opens the door on schools being forced to present discredited counter "theories" when teaching classes like science or history. Can you help keep the pressure on and join the thousands of people who have written to our leaders about One Nation NSW’s harmful Ignorance in Education Bill? https://equalityaustralia.org.au/ignoranceineducationbill/

02.01.2022 BREAKING: The Victorian Parliament has just passed a life-saving bill to outlaw LGBTQ+ conversion practices and open pathways for education, investigation and h...ealing for survivors. Victorians born with intersex variations will also have new anti-discrimination protections. The final vote was 27 ayes, 9 noes. This incredible win affirming the dignity of LGBTIQ+ people comes after years of advocacy, especially by survivors who were brave enough to share their stories. Thank you to the thousands of YOU who stood with survivors and contacted Victorian MPs calling on them to do the right thing. Together, we did it! This law won’t undo the pain and trauma inflicted on so many in the past, but it will protect countless people from having to endure the same pain and harm going forward. We know that LGBTQ+ people are whole and valid, just as they are. Now, Victorian law clearly affirms that too.
