New research on takatāpui/LGBTIQ homelessness

From Afternoons, 1:33 pm on 25 November 2020

Little is known about how the takatāpui/LGBTIQ+ community experiences homelessness in this country. 

Brodie Fraser is doing her bit to change that - she's just completed her PHD on the subject at the University of Otago's Department of Public Health in Wellington.
