66% (two thirds) of all LGBTQIA+ youth in Australia experience harassment based upon their identity. (Australian Research Centre in Sex, Health and Society, Writing Themselves In 4: Experiences of harassment. Personal Communication, 2021). This needs to end!

That is why P&G is launching the “Lead With Love” campaign in partnership with Minus18, Australia’s charity for LGBTQIA+ young people.

ABOUT MINUS18 

Minus18 is Australia’s charity improving the lives of LGBTQIA+ youth via life-affirming events, leadership programs, and education for the whole community. 

Through a preventative model of mental health support, we tackle social isolation by creating fun-filled spaces where LGBTQIA+ young people belong and are celebrated.  Youth are at the forefront of our events – and through this we’re equipping LGBTQIA+ young people with the skills they need to be the leaders of tomorrow.

Creating an Australia free from discrimination is a job for everyone, and we can’t do it alone. For schools and workplaces all across Australia, we provide LGBTQIA+ inclusion training and free digital resources to create a world where LGBTQIA+ young people are safe and belong.
