For three decades, Rural Pride Australia has championed rural LGBTIQA+ inclusion, partnering with government and philanthropic groups. Over the past decade, we’ve teamed with the Victorian Commissioners for LGBTIQA+ Communities to deliver the LGBTIQ Equality Roadshow, host ten Regional Communities of LGBTIQ+ Practice, create a State-wide Community of Practice, and co-design the Rainbow Ready Roadmap—benefiting 29 regional and rural communities.
RPA is supported by a dedicated team that effortless works to improve the lives our people in rural, regional and remote areas. Our team is formed by a diverse drop on volunteers.
Funded to refresh this co-designed resource for regional and rural areas, it offers practical, low- or no-cost tools and real-world examples so any group can advance LGBTIQA+ inclusion.
