Everyone deserves to feel like they belong at university. Yet research shows that queer young Australians are 21% less likely to feel a sense of belonging at their educational institution than their heterosexual peers.
The Charles Sturt Foundation and the Charles Sturt Ally Network are proud to host a special online conversation with Alex Greenwich MP in support of the Hon Michael Kirby AC Empowerment Scholarship, which helps LGBTQIA+ students at Charles Sturt University achieve their potential through education.
Join us for an inspiring discussion about belonging, courage, leadership and creating positive change.
The conversation will be hosted by Associate Professor Clifford Lewis, with Theo Stack, the inaugural recipient of the Hon Michael Kirby AC Empowerment Scholarship, sharing their personal story and the impact that scholarship support can have on the lives of LGBTQIA+ students.
Whether you're passionate about equity in education, LGBTQIA+ inclusion, or the power of philanthropy to create opportunity, we'd love you to join us.
