Description
Summary:A recent report, Make Love Louder report by Macquarie University researcher Shirleene Robinson (commissioned by Absolut in the lead up to the Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras) indicated that the toll from the marriage equality postal survey and current debates around the religious freedom bill is taking a heavy toll on LGBTIQ folk. Federation was also active at Fair Day, the launch of Mardi Gras where members had the opportunity to interact with LGBTIQ community members and allies to discuss campaigns important to the provision of public education and the support of LGBTIQ folk in schools. Local Associations can also actively support their local LGBTIQ communities in a range of ways, like these activities planned by Associations: * Wagga Wagga Teachers Association will be marching in the Wagga Wagga Mardi Gras on Saturday, 14 March * Hay Teachers Association will be taking part in the Rainbow on the Plains Festival on Saturday, 28 March * Inner City Teachers Association will host a seminar, Supporting LGBTIQ students in school, on Thursday, 19 March
