One of the major topics of this blog is anti-discrimination law, and specifically how well, or how poorly, Australia’s anti-discrimination laws protect lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex (LGBTI) people from discrimination.

Another key post on the issue of religious exceptions and anti-discrimination law focuses on the ability of religious schools to discriminate against lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender students and teachers in classrooms around the country:

• Back to School, Back to Discrimination for LGBT Students and Teachers

 

The following nine posts look in greater detail at Commonwealth, State and Territory LGBTI anti-discrimination laws, and how they should be improved in terms of protected attributes, religious exceptions and anti-vilification coverage:

• What’s Wrong With the Victorian Equal Opportunity Act 2010?

 

• What’s Wrong With the Queensland Anti-Discrimination Act 1991?

 

• What’s Wrong With Western Australia’s Equal Opportunity Act 1984?

 

• What’s Wrong With South Australia’s Equal Opportunity Act 1984?

 

• What’s Wrong With Tasmania’s Anti-Discrimination Act 1998?
