FOCUS FOR 2024

My focus this year is to:

  • Establishing Curtin as a visibly queer-inclusive university, through posters, flags, and artwork.
  • Continue working on the Stop Deadnaming campaign.
  • Improve the availability of necessary services for queer students, primarily through advocating for better availability of gender-neutral bathrooms. 
  • Provide more regular, inclusive events (particularly to cater to online students and students with sensory needs).

ABOUT ZAVIER

Hi! I’m Zavier and I am a 19-year-old queer, non-binary, and neurodivergent student – and your Queer Officer for 2024! I am in my second year of my Social Work undergraduate, and I have a TAFE background in Mental Health Peer Work. I am involved in numerous queer organisations, such as Transfolk of WA, Living Proud, and the Pinnacle Foundation, and I cannot wait to bring my background, knowledge & experience to the role of Queer Officer.

When I’m not working or studying, I am involved in community theatre and play with a brass band. I love being creative, and I hope to bring my passion to this role by innovating new and exciting events for queer students!
