About the program

Gender Glorious supports educators to build their knowledge and confidence around gender equity, diversity and inclusion, and to create environments where children and young people of all genders can thrive.

Through practical discussion and reflection, participants explore gender, sexuality and identity, examine the influence of stereotypes and social norms, and consider how language, environments, policies and everyday practice can support greater inclusion and equity.

The training is suitable for educators and professionals working from early childhood through to secondary school and can be tailored to the needs and context of your organisation.
