Changing the Landscape and DonateLife

Advocacy and Activism, Community, Health, Thorne Harbour Health (VAC)

Jack is in studio this week with new host Jordan from Thorne Harbour Health’s LGBTIQ+ Women’s Project.

We speak with Jerome from DonateLife about organ and tissue donation for our LGBTIQ+ communities and people living with HIV.

Chris and Maya from Switchboard also join us to discuss the Changing the Landscape campaign which aims to centre LGBTQIA+ lived experience stories and change the narrative around LGBTIQA+ suicide from one of identity-based deficit to one that celebrates resilience, mutual aid, peer support, community and acknowledges structural discrimination.

Check out our other JOY Podcasts for more on LGBTIQ+ health and wellbeing at joy.org.au/wellwellwell.

If there’s something you’d like us to explore on the show, send through ideas or questions at wellwellwell@joy.org.au
