We need your help to build Snowglobe, an innovative crisis service empowering LGBTQIA+ Australians to connect with resources and services supporting their gender, sexuality, sexual health, bodies, identity, feelings and relationships.

Queer people and allies can ask questions anonymously in a conversational text style and receive tailored answers written by educators and experts using chatbot technology.

Using co-design principles, we will design Snowglobe in an immersive collaboration with the LGBTQIA+ community and its many intersections: with the goal of eliminating discrimination, ensuring accessibility, and raising the bar for how charities can use technology for social justice.
