Description

Got questions about health and life as a young queer person?

This session is for you. Join LGBTIQA+ young people, researchers and health experts for a relaxed, honest conversation about what it's really like to look after your wellbeing as a young queer person.

Dr Jack Farrugia kicks things off with a short presentation, then a panel of community members, a PhD researcher and service providers share their lived experiences and answer your questions.

You'll hear real stories, ask whatever's on your mind, find out about services and resources that are helpful, and meet others who get it. Come along to learn what support is out there, talk about the barriers young queer people face, and swap ideas for creating safer, more inclusive spaces.

Come curious, bring your questions, and connect with community.

The conversation doesn't end when the session does.
