ÃÛÌÒÊÓƵLGBTQIA+ Alumni Network
The ÃÛÌÒÊÓƵLGBTQIA+ Alumni Network mission is to foster community among, and build stronger connections between, ÃÛÌÒÊÓƵLGBTQIA+ alumni and students, staff, faculty, parents, and straight allies through an intersectional lens.
This will be achieved through social and networking events, thought leadership discussions, representation and advocacy of our community and building strong networks with other LGBTQIA+ organisations.
The ÃÛÌÒÊÓƵLGBTQIA+ Alumni Network was launched by Chief Minister Andrew Barr on 31 August 2018, as part of a Wear it Purple Day event. Chief Minster Barr is the Network's inaugural patron, in recognition of his ongoing work in advancing LGBTQIA+ rights and inclusion in the ACT and Australia more broadly.
