The Better Together Podcast contains recordings from Australia's LGBTIQA+ Conference, the Better Together Conference, presented by The Equality Project.In order to facilitate a conversation about LGBTIQ+ rights in Australia we need to have a platform to share our ideas and experiences and build bridges between our diverse communities. The Equality Project does this through a national conference called Better Together. To ensure the Better Together Conference remains accessible for the wider Rainbow Community, JOY has recorded and produced as many sessions as possible from the conferences, bringing you this podcast.

2021: Growing Together In A Year Apart

Welcome to the 2021 Better Together Conference Podcast. Recorded live at the Adelaide Convention Centre on the 18th and 19th of June, 2021. These sessions were proudly recorded and produced by JOY 94.9.
The Pinnacle Foundation provides scholarships to young, disadvantaged LGBTQI+ people – enhancing their education, and ending the isolation too many experience. In this session Pinnacle scholars and mentors tell how they’ve grown together through lockdowns and social distance.
Social change is, at its heart, a story of individual change – of how people’s lives becoming better. Attendees will hear young LGBTQI+ students talk of their year in two parts – who they were when they commenced their Pinnacle scholarships, and who they are now. The most striking change scholars say the Pinnacle brings to their lives is how they feel connected to a ’new’ family.
Facilitator: Simon Royal (Pinnacle Foundation).
Speakers: Dr Jacinta Clark, Isabelle Kotasek, Nathan Cappelluti and Dr Mark Fuller
