Event description

The Queer Migrant Project was established by LGBTI Legal Service in 2024. It aimed to nurture a collective voice to address domestic and family violence as experienced by LGBTQ+ refugees, asylum seekers, immigrants, and people from migrant backgrounds living in Queensland.

 A Peer Advisory Group was recruited from the local LGBTQ+ migrant community around Meanjin (Brisbane) to deliver the project. The panel met regularly in workshops and online meetings facilitated by three queer Project Facilitators from migrant backgrounds (Mark Kleine, Dilsah De Rham, and Saina Avesta). This culminated in the creation of a safer practice guideline (the “Manual”) for practitioners when supporting LGBTQ+ people from migrant backgrounds in the context of DFV as well as a Forum where the findings of the project were shared with the DFV sector.

 LGBTI Legal Service partnered with Third Queer Culture, QPASTT to deliver the project and was supported by Queer and Trans Workers Against Violence (QTWAV). The project was funded by the Queensland Government through the Safe and Diverse Communities Grant.

 Please join Mark Kleine in this webinar to hear more about the Queer Migrant Project, its findings on intersectionality, and the “Manual”.

Registrations for this webinar close at 12pm on Wednesday 10 September.
