Actions speak louder than words in this new awareness campaign
The Victorian Government has revealed its “The Unsaid Says A Lot” campaign to address everyday discrimination against trans and gender diverse people.
Despite increasing acceptance of LGBTIAQ+ people and greater media visibility, research from the Australian Research Centre in Sex, Health and Society reveals that trans and gender diverse people still feel unsafe in public and often face unfair treatment based on their gender identity. In response to this, “The Unsaid Says A Lot” campaign depicts instances of the everyday rejection and harassment trans people face, contrasted with examples of kindness and welcoming.
Continued funding for Victorian trans and gender diverse care clinics
The Victorian state government has allocated $2.1 million in funding to two trans and gender diverse care clinics over 4 years.
