This is Oz campaign Continues with Wallabies



No, the 'This is Oz' campaign has not enlisted marsupials for the cause. In the new images released, the Australian Rugby Union team, the Wallabies, have come good on their word and posed for photos for ACON’s This Is Oz anti-homophobia campaign.

Wallabies captain Stirling Mortlock has joined forces with players Dave Pocock, Al Baxter and Steve Moore to be part of the campaign, which involves participants contributing pictures of themselves at the This Is Oz website – www.thisisoz.com.au – with messages that challenge homophobia or celebrate diversity and social inclusion.

ACON CEO Stevie Clayton expressed her delight at having members of the Wallabies making a contribution to This Is Oz.

Hopefully, GLBT visibility will be improved and help change some attitudes amongst rugby supporters, some of whom may not otherwise be thinking about equality for GLBT people.
