Services
LGBTIQ+ Inclusion training
These sessions are an excellent first step for any organisation seeking to improve their inclusion practices and provide a safe and welcoming environment for both employees and clients. Our training sessions are designed to inspire new thinking by providing a safe space to ask questions alongside content that is engaging, fun, interactive and practical.
PD for educators
As teachers ourselves, it was only natural that we would specialise in providing services especially for the education sector. These popular sessions are perfect for childcare centres, kindergartens, schools and other education organisations looking to provide quality and timely professional development for their staff and in turn improve their inclusion practices.
Community consultation
Are you looking for more diverse voices to give feedback on your project? Do you need expert facilitators to ensure a safe and welcoming environment? We offer community consultation and specialist facilitation services for organisations seeking to engage LGBTIQ+ communities and other diverse groups.
consultancy
Want to take action but looking for specialised guidance? Have a problem you’re not sure how to resolve? Need help reviewing policy and procedures? We offer tailored consultancy for projects and organisations big and small.
Who We Are
Equal Space was started when we went looking for quality LGBTIQ+ consultation services for our own workplaces in the education and community engagement sectors and found the options available unsatisfying. The vision was simple: provide organisations with specialised training and facilitation that is engaging, relevant and directly helps people to create more inclusive spaces and places.
Amelia Kalifa is our lead facilitator and brings extensive experience in education and community engagement and a deep passion for social justice. She is an active member of Rainbow Families QLD and the Queensland public sector LGBTIQ+ employee network.
Equal Space is based in South East Queensland, Australia. Interstate, regional and online options available.
“Amelia’s session was fantastic! Very informative, interactive and really inclusive. I got so much out of it and it was wonderful to open up discussion with this vital area of our work.
