eLearning for Adults & Young People

We've created a FREE youth eLearning video resource, specifically for school-age young people. The video features real questions from real students in regional Victoria – from queer teens, as well as their ally classmates. How do I tell someone their homophobic joke isn't okay? How do I remember my friend's pronouns?

Here, the Minus18 answer these questions and more.

We know every workplace is different – so we've created a digital Wear It Purple® Day speech for teams and workplaces to celebrate the day their way. Purchase this eLearning content – starring the Minus18 Education Team – and it's yours to stream and share in the way that suits you best.
