Exploring the Terminology of our Diverse Community

AGMCHomosexual, gay, queer, lesbian, dandy, Two Spirit, SOGI, Friends of Dorothy, Fa’afafine, LGBTQIA+… all names used at various times by various people to describe our diverse rainbow community. There is no single term that works across the globe. But does that matter? And are we leaving behind groups who don’t have English as their primary language?

City Of Melbourne - AGMC - RMIT

A new Australian initiative to create an LGBTIQA+ terminology guide in languages other than English is being created by RMIT University in partnership with the Australian GLBTIQ Multicultural Council and funded by the City of Melbourne. It will provide a terminology guide and translator for people of multicultural and multi-faith backgrounds. Joining us in this podcast are: Budi Sudarto from the Australian GLBTIQ Multicultural Council (AGMC); and Elvira Quintana, a linguist participating in the project.
