Equality Australia

About

Equality Australia is a national LGBTIQ+ organisation dedicated to achieving equality for LGBTIQ+ people. Borne out of the successful campaign for marriage equality, and established with support from the Human Rights Law Centre, Equality Australia brings together legal, policy and communications expertise, along with thousands of supporters, to redress discrimination, disadvantage and distress experienced by LGBTIQ+ people.

Equality Australia exists to improve the wellbeing and circumstances of LGBTIQ+ people in Australia and their families by:

Relieving distress and disadvantage to LGBTQI+ people;
Reducing the prevalence and relieving the effects of depression, suicide, anxiety, bullying, and homelessness they experience;
Reducing the stigma and discrimination they experience;
Advancing and promoting equality and inclusion; and
Enhancing their actual, and sense of safety, security and acceptance.

We stand together and we stand proud because no one deserves to be treated as less than for simply being who they are. Not the rainbow family. Not the trans teenager. Not the teacher or student just trying to go to school.

We are working with gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, intersex and queer people to build the power, voices and influence of our communities to address their suffering. We also work in partnership with other organisations to achieve our aims.

We acknowledge that our offices are on the land of the Kulin Nation and the land of the Eora Nation and we pay our respects to their traditional owners.

We are registered as: Charity.
