With much of the understanding of LGBTQI experiences being centred around the Gay and Lesbian experiences, Bi+ Network seeks to change that. A grassroots and volunteer-based centred on the Sydney bi+ community, concerned with their safety and wellbeing.听
Their main goals are to improve the broader understanding of the bi+ experience through education, advocacy, and community initiatives, as well as being 鈥渄edicated to improving the well-being of bi+ people across Sydney鈥�.
A core goal of the Bi+ Network is to educate the community about the unique challenges that face the bi+ community, such as combatting bi-erasure, the phenomena where bi+ individuals have their existence questioned and ignored by broader communities.听
The group also aims to create an active bi+ community. This includes the creation of bi+ 鈥渟pecific spaces, where people have an opportunity to strengthen connections with one another and share stories about their lived experiences.鈥澨�
The group鈥檚 directory on services and other community groups also serves to help connect bi+ people in Sydney to groups in the city and around the world, as well as re-directing to important mental health care, legal help and housing services.听
Bi+ Network promotes and endorses many bi+ events, such as the annual Bilines Festival, aiming at promoting bi+ visibility.听
