Event Summary

The LGBTQ+ Action Plan for Wales* aims to tackle the existing inequalities experienced by LGBTQ+ communities, challenge discrimination, and create a society where LGBTQ+ people feel safe to live and love authentically, openly, and freely as themselves.

One year on since the Plan was published, join Policy Insight Wales at our Delivering the LGBTQ+ Action Plan for Wales Conference to hear an update on how organisations are responding to the challenge of implementing the Plan.

Attend to hear from leading case studies and best practice across all of the key themes including: increasing participation and inclusion, strengthening equality and human rights, tackling hate crime, welcoming LGBTQ+ asylum seekers, improving healthcare outcomes, providing LGBTQ+ inclusive education and workplaces.

Our popular LGBTQ+ Action Plan for Wales conference held in Cardiff last July was attended by over 150 colleagues from organisations striving to improve the lives of LGBTQ+ people in Wales. Come along to our conference in June to make new connections and network with colleagues from various sectors including education, housing, health and social care, culture and sport. 

Find out how others have embedded a culture of inclusivity for LGBTQ+ employees and share your progress and challenges in achieving the desired outcomes for people from LGBTQ+ communities.
