Building on the success of a UK-based project, Queering Public Space (Catterall & Azzouz 2021), this report refocuses the lens on Australian cities. This is necessary because the histories, legacies and contemporary forms of cities differ across the world, requiring nuanced local insight to ‘usualise’ queerness in public spaces. The Report examines how public spaces can be more inclusive for LGBTIQ+ individuals, families and communities through better accommodation in policy and practice for local areas. This work aims to provide recommendations for creating more inclusive public spaces in the local government areas of metropolitan Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane.
