We are blessed to live on Whadjuk Noongar Country. We acknowledge that Noongar people remain the custodians of their Country, and that they continue to practice their values, languages, cultures, beliefs and knowledge. We pay our respects to the Elders and knowledge holders of the Country on which we live, work, love and travel.
GRAI honours the Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Trans and Intersex pioneers and respects the full diversity of our communities. We recognise the prejudice and trauma many experience and celebrate our strength and perseverance. The terms Sistergirl and Brotherboy acknowledges our Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander trans women and trans men.
A note on terminology: GRAI uses the initialism LGBTI to refer to older people (50+) of diverse genders, sexualities and sex characteristics, as this reflects their lived experience and recognises that some terms like ‘queer’ were used as a slur when they were younger. GRAI recognises that the initialism does not capture the full diversity of sexualities, bodies, identities, and experiences that exist within our community, however we also recognise the value of the term LGBTI when exploring collective experiences of stigma, discrimination, and marginalisation, and when advocating for LGBTI rights and inclusivity for older people. GRAI uses LGBTQIA+SB when referring to a First Nations cohorts and also uses LGBTQIA+/LGBTQI+ when citing Government documents to align with their terminology.
