The Coalition of Activist Lesbians-Australia,(COAL)
COAL was
formed in 1994
to work towards the end of discrimination against lesbians.
COAL lobbies the Australian Commonwealth
and State Governments to remove discrimination
against lesbians.
COAL is Australia's
national
lesbian advocacy orginisation and is the only United
Nations
Accredited lesbian
Non Government Organisation.
We work with
the U.N. Convention to Eliminate all forms of Discrimination
Against Women (CEDAW) and were active at the 4th World
Conference on Women, Beijing, 1995.
COAL has produced
training resources and research
papers which you and your workplace may be interested
in purchasing
to improve your knowledge and
understanding of the issues that
lesbians face.
