On Friday the 18th of November, The Equality Campaign hosted the first National Faith and Civil Marriage Equality Forum held at Parliament House in Canberra.

• Benjamin Oh from Australian Catholics for Equality
• Shiffa Samad from Muslims for Progressive Values
• Dr Y. Gavriel Ansara from Rosh Pinah, an Affirming Orthodox Jewish Network
