Consultation is now open for the whole of government LGBTIQA+ Inclusion Strategy (the Strategy).

We value the input of LGBTIQA+ people and communities and invite people to have their say during the consultation period on WA’s first LGBTIQA+ Inclusion Strategy.

We also welcome input from allies, who may be connected to LGBTIQA+ people and communities as a family member, friend, health professional or educator.

Your feedback will help to inform the development of the Strategy to ensure it reflects the lived experiences of people who are LGBTIQA+ and responds to the diverse needs and views of people who are LGBTIQA+.

There will be many opportunities to provide input throughout the consultation period, in person and online.

We are committed to engaging with purpose and working in partnership with key partners to undertake statewide, trauma-informed, culturally and psychologically safe engagement.

Thorough, meaningful engagement with LGBTIQA+ people and communities is at the heart of the Strategy’s development.

The LGBTIQA+ Inclusion Strategy will foster greater inclusion for LGBTIQA+ Western Australians and identify priority areas and associated actions to encourage long-term change. It will promote the LGBTIQA+ wellbeing and full social and economic participation of people who are LGBTIQA+ in WA.

Consultation is open now until April 2025. Visit wa.gov.au/lgbtiqa to have your say.
