We're Coming Out: LGBTI Equality

1Oct2018

RSVP ESSENTIAL - Please email rsvp@vicbar.com.au

The fight for equality and the elimination of discrimination for LGBTI persons has been a long and hard one. From the first Mardi Gras protest in 1978, to the historic ‘Yes’ Vote in the National Marriage Equality Survey in 2017, the past 40 years presents us with an opportunity to consider the significant achievements, lost opportunities and issues facing the diverse LGBTI communities in 2018.

The LGBTI Working Group of the Victorian Bar invites you to hear reflections about the road towards equality and the experiences of LGBTI persons in the practice of the law, including future challenges.

The LGBTI Working Group will also launch its online support resource for assisting lawyers in tackling everyday discrimination commonly faced by LGBTI persons in their workplace.   

The session is open to all members of the Victorian Legal Profession.
