This year, representatives from numerous industries, cultures and sectors will come to speak to their experiences on this year’s themes of Home, Land and Place.

The ten day festival includes a number of ways to interact with the festival including Impact Schools (conferences with experts on topics ranging from social housing to native title), participatory Impact Labs that goes through a bespoke design process, and Sparker Events for an all-in experience with community groups and local organisations and much more to do around the city.

OUTinPerth co-editors Graeme Watson and Leigh Andrew Hill will also be taking part in the Impact School: Place on Wednesday July 26th, speaking on the role of independent queer media in community building.

The Social Impact Festival runs from Tuesday July 18th – Friday July 28th at the University of Western Australia and various locations across Perth. For more information, or to register for events head to socialimpactfestival.org
