It’s a new year and we’re launching a new name, and a new Strategic Plan!
Based on consultation with members and staff, the Board confirmed the new name to reflect LGBTIQ+ Health Australia’s aspirations and plans for national focus on our communities’ health and stronger action to overcome continued significant health disparities.
Who should attend?
We’d love all our members to share this event with their staff, stakeholders and community. We’d love everyone to share our hopes and ambitions for a stronger, improved, national LGBTIQ+ Health Australia.
