CoPQTI logo transparent

The CoPQTI comprises °IJʹ academics, professional staff, and students, both LGBTQI+ and allies, who work with queer and trans people, and people with innate variations of sex characteristics, to make research and practice more inclusive.

About the CoP

The continued explicit or implicit exclusion of queer and trans people, and people with innate variations of sex characteristics, from public, social, and cultural life has long-reaching implications. This exclusion often starts with the language used in research and associated practice. Despite the proliferation of inclusive language guides in various domains, there is no 'one size fits all' model that can conceivably respond to the varied, complex and intersectional aspects of inclusivity. As such, language change needs to be accompanied by effective research practice.

The CoPQTI aims to generate and support enhanced capacity in sector-leading inclusive practice with queer and trans people, and people with innate variations of sex characteristics, to:
1. Advise researchers

from across °IJʹ and beyond on the implementation of the national standards.

2. Provide HDR and staff training

on inclusive research practice across a range of policy areas, such as public health, medicine, law, and social sciences.

3. Develop an interdisciplinary research cluster

to investigate the considerable impact inclusive research will have on future research findings and public policy development.

4. Serve as a central platform

to generate interdisciplinary consideration of complex requests for advice from °IJʹ and beyond.

SEXtember 2023 | Making research more inclusive of gender and sexuality diversity: HDR perspectives

Challenge assumptions, forge connections, and reimagine intimacy at the 2023 Sex, Health, and Society Conference!

Chair: Kerryn Drysdale

CSRH Seminar Series 2023 | Introducing the Community of Practice for Inclusive Research

Seminar presented by a new Community of Practice at °IJʹ (CoPQTI) and °IJʹ Centre for Social Research in Health on 5 December 2023.

Beyond Marriage Equality | LGBTQIA+ Rights in 2023

This was the inaugural event of the Community of Practice for Inclusive Research with Queer, Trans & Intersex people. Chair and one of the CoP's founders Dr Bridget Haire spoke with Alex Greenwich MP, Ash McCullough and Jessica Cunning about recent wins in this space and what more needs to be done to achieve rights for queer, trans and intersex people. Hear about how we can celebrate these achievements and learn lessons for future campaigns, especially in light of Alex's push for a NSW Equality Bill.
