It’s Pride Week at Monash University, and “What Happens Next?” is back with two special bonus episodes to celebrate.
In part one of “A Pride Open Road”, meet three student delegates chosen by the University to attend the WorldPride23 Human Rights Conference in Sydney.
Hear the stories of their own personal journeys, and follow along as they participate in Melbourne’s Midsumma Pride events, meet Olympian and WorldPride Rainbow Champion Ian Thorpe, and attend the first-ever Pride March on Monash’s Clayton campus.
Along the way, you’ll discover what attending the Human Rights Conference means to them, what they hope to learn and how they’ll use this knowledge to help build a better future.
You’ll also hear from legal scholar Professor Paula Gerber, who outlines the human rights issues still facing the LGBTIQA+ community and what the world could look like if we don’t advocate for change.
