Following tech-facilitated attacks on gay and bisexual men and violence toward our LGBTIQA+ communities more broadly, Victoria has announced an “Inquiry into Anti-LGBTIQA+ hate crimes”.
Last year, we hosted a community forum about the spate of tech-facilitated attacks on gay and bisexual men.
On Sun 29 Mar, we’re returning to The Laird to continue the conversation and discuss next steps.
This will be a chance to get an update on what’s been happening over summer as well as understand how our communities can make a submission and/or inform Thorne Harbour Health’s own submission into the inquiry.
For the privacy of attendees, this forum will not be recorded or available virtually.
Registration is encouraged but not mandatory to attend.
This forum is an all genders event.
