The policy areas outlined in the guide have been identified by the Equality Project as key domains for progressive policy supporting LGBTIQA+ inclusion and human rights in Australia. Significant effort has been made to ensure collaborative, participatory approaches were used in developing the Guide. While every effort has been made to seek appropriate representation from various segments of the LGBTIQA+ community and a range of subject matter experts, the Equality Project acknowledges there are competing demands for the time and resources of community members, especially from less represented sections within that community, meaning it has not always been possible to obtain this advice.

This 2nd edition of the Guide contains information relevant to:

Local Government

State and Territory Governments

Federal Government

Government departments and Commissions

Political Parties

LGBTIQA+ Advocacy organisations

Businesses and Non-profits

Policy professionals

Media

Academics and researchers

We note that policy development is continuous and welcome feedback from policy professionals, political parties and community organisations.
