Pride Academy

Pride Academy is an emerging not for profit organisation backed by the Foundation for Young Australians. We believe that all LGBTQIA+ young people deserve to be equipped with the skills needed to thrive as leaders in their communities. We deliver workshops that foster self-awareness, share skills, build resilience and connect school students to the wider LGBTQI+ community through intergenerational dialogue. Over the course of the program, participants are mentored and supported to design an inclusive plan of action for their schools and communities. By the end, students are not only empowered to realise their potential but can purposefully contribute to the world as leaders, activists, advocates and changemakers.
