Submission: Inquiry into the Sex Discrimination Amendment (Removing Discrimination Against Students) Bill 2018

Amnesty International has submitted to the Senate Inquiry into the Sex Discrimination Amendment (Removing Discrimination Against Students) Bill 2019.

Amnesty International reiterates its recommendations to the Religious Freedom Review Expert Panel and the inquiry into legislative exemptions that allow faith-based educational institutions to discriminate against students, teachers, and staff and is now calling on the government to amend the Sex Discrimination Act to ensure that students, teachers and other staff cannot be discriminated against by religious schools.

As a global movement of 10 million people, and 500,000 people in Australia, Amnesty International has the people power to build public support for a Human Rights Act. Learn more about what are human rights and our Human Rights Act campaign work.
