Education and training

What we offer

Delivering high-quality education and training is part of our role as a peer-led, specialist LGBTIQA+SB legal service.

Our education and training is:

grounded in casework and lived legal experience
designed to build capability and understanding, not just to transfer legal information

We offer community education for LGBTIQA+SB people and groups, and provide training for legal and community professionals.

understand our legal rights and options

Examples include:

empowering, rights-based training on LGBTIQA+SB legal issues
community workshops and discussions linked to emerging legal or policy issues
engaging resources and materials that are accessible, community-informed and practical
peer and community capacity-building, supporting people to advocate for themselves and their communities
