Our new website improves access to resource, and reflects changes in how we structure our organisation following the merger of our founding organisations.
InterAction welcomes Derek Tys to the InterLink team. Derek is an Accredited Mental Health Social Worker and therapist with a deep commitment to supporting individuals through trauma, grief, and the search for meaning.
Intersex Human Rights Australia and Intersex Peer Support Australia are uniting to form a new force for change: InterAction for Health and Human Rights. Folks may also wish to call us InterAction DownUnder, or just InterAction.
Do you work in training and communications, or operations? Would you like to work from home for Australia’s leading voice on intersex issues? Do you want flexible work arrangements, generous superannuation, salary packing and access to our Employee Assistance Program?
IHRA is delighted to announce the appointment of Mauro Cabral Grinspan as Principal Consultant, and coordinator for a new international project aimed at dismantling human rights violations in medical settings on people with innate variations of sex characteristics.
According to recent Australian research, registered "LGBTIQ+ organisations receive just 5 cents out of every $100 received by Australian charities". Resourcing for intersex-led and intersex-focused work is a fraction of that fraction.
Are you a person who is active in human rights and/or advocacy for people with innate variations of sex characteristics? Would you be interested in joining a national Board to help make further progress in Australia and internationally?
We're pleased to announce that the IHRA family has grown again with the addition of Natalie Hamam, an occupational therapist who lives on Wiradjuri Country, Albury NSW. Nat joins Bonnie as part of the Interlink team, adding capacity for more groupwork sessions as well as individual counseling.
We are delighted to welcome Bonnie Hart to IHRA's staff team, as our new Deputy Executive Director. Bonnie will lead work developing psychosocial support services by and for community. Like all our staff, Bonnie will work part-time.
We are excited to welcome our two new Senior Projects Officers: Gabriel Filpi and Olympia Balopitos. Cody Smith also steps into a new role as Training and Communications Officer.
