Joining Alison in this episode are Fleassy Malay and Emerson Zandegu, areas of discussion are: What does LGBTIQA+ stand for and what is the difference between sexual orientation and gender identity? What is daily life like for someone from the LGBTIQA+? What barriers still exist for the LGBTIQA+ community? How do I address people from the LGBTIQA+ community without offending them? What upcoming events will be happening in the area? If you like to know more about LGBTIQA+, please visit the links below. Banyule Council webpages: Find the Rainbow in Melbourne’s North - https://www.banyule.vic.gov.au/Community-services/Cultural-and-identity-diversity/LGBTIQA-communities/Rainbow-in-Melbourne LGBTIQA+ communities - https://www.banyule.vic.gov.au/Community-services/Cultural-and-identity-diversity/LGBTIQA-communities LGBTIQA+ Population Committee - https://www.banyule.vic.gov.au/About-us/Community-advisory-committees/LGBTIQA-Population-Committee Minus18 is an organisation established to support and equip young LGBTQI+ people and their friends and family. Their website is - https://www.minus18.org.au/articles IDAHOBIT Day is acknowledged on 17th May every yearNational Reconciliation Week is held from 27th May to 3rd June each year#LGBTIQA+, #DIVERSITY, #IDAHOBIT
