WORKSHOPS & TALKS
Perfect as an introductory session or a refresher for groups wanting to better understand the terminology, research and lived experiences surrounding the LGBTIQA+ communities while learning how to become better allies.
Learn more about the experiences of being trans and gender diverse by hearing firsthand from a member of the community, reviewing current research and learning practical strategies for supporting trans and gender diverse peers.
Research shows that young LGBTIQA+ people are some of the most vulnerable members in our society. This workshop explores how we can best support them through creating safe spaces, using inclusive language and providing
them with useful resources.
'Creating LGBTIQA+ Safe Workplaces'
LGBTIQA+ staff, clients and volunteers all have a right to feel safe in a workplace environment. This workshop is best for workplaces and teams looking to get everyone on the same page and ensure their processes and policies are inclusive.
“Queer Towns’ trainers broke down so many walls with their authenticity, knowledge and humour. I now feel far more confident to address and engage in areas I tended to shy away from due to ignorance.
The session was extremely informative and delivered at a comfortable pace. A must for people of all ages.”
- Teacher from St Leonard's College, Melbourne, 2019.
