A Rainbow Policy Tool for this Year's Election, with Jess and Noor from Rainbow Election 2020; September 2, 2020 (Part I)
Bronwyn speaks to Jess and Noor from Rainbow Election 2020 about their LGBTQIA+ policy tool for this year’s election. The tool was created in collaboration with 13 rainbow organisations and aims to inform the voting public as well as educate policymakers on how they can protect the rainbow community. It highlights 15 rainbow policy areas, split into 4 categories; Health, Education, Community and Legal. Part I talks about rainbow voter disenfranchisement and lack of engagement by political parties in rainbow policies. Part II next week will go into more depth on the specific policies.
The Rainbow Election Policy tool website will go live on 3 September, followed by a launch event on September 17 with guest speaker MP Chloe Swarbrick. You can find more info on their website or on social media.
