The LGBTIQA+ Community at Murdoch invites staff, students, and the community, both LGBTIQA+ community and allies, to join us for the 2025 Wear it Purple Day Morning Tea! Hear from staff and student speakers about practising effective allyship, accessing resources, and building capacity for supporting diverse, inclusive, and supportive communities. We will be launching the new Murdoch University LGBTIQA+ Ally Network, too!

The theme of Wear it Purple Day 2025 is Bold Voices, Bright Futures. Come and hear from some of Murdoch's bold voices supporting and representing the LGBTIQA+ community. Wear it Purple Day is an annual visibility event to foster supportive, safe, empowering, and inclusive environments for rainbow young people.

Time: 10am-11am - Join us afterwards at the Discovery Way Entrance for a massive purple-hued group photo!
