Australian LGBTIQA+ Policy Guide

Australian LGBTIQA+ Policy Guide 2020

The Equality Project developed the Australian LGBTIQA+ Policy Guide to ensure that lesbian, gay, bi+, trans, gender diverse, non-binary, intersex, queer, asexual and aromantic (ace and aro) people and their families experience genuine inclusion and the realisation of their human rights in Australia.

The guide is a high-level overview of the most prominent needs experienced broadly throughout Australian LGBTIQA+ communities. We urge all levels of government, political parties, advocacy organisations, businesses, non-profits, policy. professionals, academics, researchers and the media to download the guide.

The policy areas outlined in the guide have been identified by the Equality Project as key domains for progressive policy supporting LGBTIQA+ inclusion and human rights in Australia. Significant effort has been made to ensure collaborative, participatory approaches were used in developing the guide.

Policy development is continuous and we welcome feedback from policy professionals, political parties and community organisations.

The development team (2014-2019) was lead by Nathan Despott and includes Alastair Lawrie, Nicola Kolb, Remy Coll, Sam Blake, Edward Thomas and Camille Folley.
