LGBTIQ+ Inclusion | Equity Diversity & Inclusion

UNSW aims to provide a welcoming and inclusive environment for students, staff and visitors. We understand LGBTIQ+ people continue to face challenges in society that their non-LGBTIQ+ equivalents may not experience. We hope you can feel confident and loved to be your full self here.

Ally Network

The Ally@UNSW Network aims to ensure UNSW is a safe and welcoming place for all LGBTIQ students and staff.

Students can contact any trained Ally, member, such as Dr Bridget Haire, to have an impartial and confidential conversation about LGBTIQ+ matters.
