Support for PrideFEST 2020
Support for PrideFEST 2020
16 November 2020
Due to COVID-19, PRIDE WA had to cancel this year’s parade and WA Health will have to wait until 2021 for the opportunity to show our support on the streets of Perth.
Instead, WA Health will continue to support the health and wellbeing of people in LGBTIQ+ communities through the Western Australian Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Intersex Health Strategy 2019-2024.
Due to the far-reaching effects of the pandemic, support programs will emphasise inclusivity and mental health.
PrideFEST 2020 runs from 14-28 November and is an annual celebration that commemorates the march in 1989 to the Western Australian State Parliament to demand the decriminalisation of homosexuality.
