Registrations are open!
Registrations for Shift Hui 2017 are now open: shift.insideout.org.nz/form Registrations close on the 17th March and we will contact you to let you know if you have a place by the 21st March. If you need to find out urgently (for example you need to book flights from Invercargill ASAP before prices go up) whether you can come, please contact us [email protected] and we’ll do our best to let you know sooner. Due to a venue change this year, Shift only has space for 50 attendees and about 50 volunteers. These places will be allocated as fairly as possible across the regions in Aotearoa/New Zealand. We apologise in advance for any disappointment caused by the small numbers, but we are hoping to have some of the panels and workshops available through social media.
Registrations are opening Wednesday March 1st 2017 at 4pm!!!!

Shift Hui 2017
April 21st-24th in Wellington - save the dates We will be opening registrations for Shift 2017 in early March! Shift is a hui (gathering) for young people of minority sexes, sexualities and genders run by InsideOUT! Join us for a weekend of making connections, learning about different issues facing the rainbow community, taking part in workshops and activities (talent show!) and gaining new skills and knowledge to help you set up and/or sustain a queer straight alliance/diversity group in your school or take other actions to make your school or community a safer place. We want to see a shift in the dominant culture and see Aotearoa New Zealand as a safe place for everyone, regardless of their sex, sexuality or gender.
Thank you to everyone who made Shift Hui 2016 the magical experience it was! Lots more to come over the next few days, but for now we send our love and well wishes for all the best recovering from the hui hangover!
