GLBTI
Policy has worked in conjunction with Whitireia Community Law Centre to
produce an online legal resource for lesbian, gay, bisexual, queer,
takataapui, fa'afafine, transsexual, transgender and intersex people (and
anyone else who doesn't fit into heterosexual or gender norms!).
The resource is housed on the Community Law Centre website - currently on
its front page at
http://www.communitylaw.org.nz/. You will see that the resource covers a
broad range of legislation and drills down into some of the areas that are
more specific to the target audience, such as legal parenting and
guardianship issues, and legal identity documents.
The resource will be updated to incorporate changes to legislation and
hopefully new areas will be developed. It would be great to receive your
feedback to know what you find useful and where you would like to see
further work. Please send all content feedback to the email address in the
resource introduction, ie
commlaw@wnc.quik.co.nz.
