A transgender diverse training session provided by Transgender Victoria.

The session will begin with a brief introduction to LGBTIQA+ before moving into the main focus of trans and gender diverse issues, including how to be more inclusive. The trainer, Archie (pronouns: they, them) is non-binary and has extensive experience in arts and training.

Over the course of this three-hour session, you will be introduced to gender diversity and gain a deeper understanding of the differences between sexual orientation, intersex status, gender identity and expression. You will learn about key areas of disadvantage and discrimination for trans and gender diverse people, as well as related mental health impacts. Legislative obligations, tips and suggestions on working with trans and gender diverse people will also be included in this session.
