The national debate on religious discrimination made one thing clear: neither major party was truly listening to the LGBTIQA+ community. By 2022, it was no longer acceptable for political leaders to decide our priorities for us — without evidence, consultation, or accountability.

In this Queer Conversation, LOTL speaks with Dr Sharon Dane, lead researcher with Just Equal Australia, about the organisation’s landmark community survey and what the data reveals about the real concerns, needs, and expectations of LGBTIQA+ people. Dr Dane discusses why evidence‑based advocacy matters, how the survey was designed, and what Just Equal hopes to achieve by putting community voices front and centre.
