LGBTQIA+ INCLUSION

TRAINING

Creating truly inclusive spaces doesn’t happen by accident - it’s built through knowledge, empathy, and action.

With over 14 years of experience producing safer queer events as the creator of one of Australia’s largest LGBTQIA+ events Unicorns, leading advocacy projects, and developing workplace inclusion toolkits such as the WorkSafe WorkWell LGBTQIA+ Toolkit, I offer workshops that go beyond theory to create real, lasting change.

Whether you’re just starting your LGBTQIA+ inclusion journey or ready to deepen your allyship, these sessions will give your team the understanding and confidence to take action.

    Identify LGBTQIA+ gendered violence and micro-aggressions.

    Optional follow-up consulting on inclusion strategies or event planning.
