We don’t have all the answers but we are creating a space to ask the questions.

Better Together is our national conference.

In order to facilitate a conversation about LGBTIQ+ rights in Australia we need to have a platform to share our ideas and experiences and ask the hard questions about how we can move forward and tackle what’s important, this conference is a space for our voices to be heard.

Jason Tuazon McCheyne from The Equality Project joined Leasa & Dean on MAD Wednesdays to talk about the conference, happening in Sydney at the University of Technology Sydney, Aerial UTS Function Centre, on Friday 11th to Saturday 12th January 2019.

The conference aims to explore current issues facing the LGBTIQ+ movement, bringing together voices from indigenous communities, people with a disability, the Deaf community, as well as multicultural and multi-faith communities. Creating a truly intersectional discussion about achieving meaningful social change to create a fairer, more equal and more just Australia.
