Presenting at Better Together 2019

Presenting at Better Together 2019

My first presentation of the year will be in Sydney on 12 January at #BetterTogether2019, run by The Equality Project which is a new national organisation bringing together LGBTIQ+ people with allies across the social justice movement, to advocate for a better, more just, and fairer society for all. 
The conference aims to explore current issues facing the LGBTIQ+ movement, bringing together voices from indigenous communities, people with a disability, the deaf community, as well as multicultural and multi-faith communities.  
My presentation will be about surrogacy.  I will be presenting with renowned fertility counsellor and psychologist Miranda Montrone.  Miranda, who is based in Sydney, has been a fertility counsellor for over 30 years.  She is one of the leading surrogacy counselling experts in Australia and has written many pre-signing and post birth surrogacy reports.  A client of mine who with his wife attended upon Miranda for a report, said that Miranda was a credit to her profession.  My client was also a psychologist.
Details for the conference are here.
The conference will be held at UTS

Australian Surrogacy Law Change: 3,000 Children’s Parentage at Risk

A change to Australia’s family law regulations threatens to remove an important layer of legal certainty for nearly 3,000 children born overseas through surrogacy. For their families, the issue is anything but technical. It concerns whether Australian law presumes that the people raising these children are their parents.
