Register for Pride in the Paddock working group.

The National Centre for Farmer Health, together with Deakin University and Western District Health Service is launching Pride in the Paddock – an initiative to improve access to inclusive preventive health and mental health resources for LGBTIQA+ members of Australia’s farming communities.

We’re looking for LGBTIQA+ farmers, agricultural workers, rural community members and health professionals to join the project, where you will:

⏺ Share your insights
⏺ Review and update existing resources and program content
⏺ Advise on future content priorities

As part of the working group, you’ll be invited to attend 3 – 5 online workshops, 60–90 minutes in length.

Your voice will help shape practical, relevant and inclusive resources that support the health and wellbeing of LGBTIQA+ people in agriculture. Participants will also be offered a small reimbursement ($50 per meeting) for participating in the working group outside of their paid work role e.g. self-employed farmers.

⏺ Project starts April 2026 – Register today!
