Global Pride Study: The diversity of populations, including by sexuality, sexual orientation, gender, and gender identity and expression, is growing fast worldwide. However, limited empirical research has examined well-being and health and their determinants in sexual and gender diverse communities across distinct cultural and social contexts. The Global Pride Study was developed to explore these issues with scholars from around the globe.
The study is open to LGBTQ people aged 18 and over. This global study on health and wellbeing across generations is being piloted in Australia, and 14 other countries.

The study is approved by the Institutional Review Board of the University of Washington, and the Human Research Ethics Committee at Southern Cross University (Approval No. /).
