Learning Moments - SOGI

SOGI School Leads will often be seen as the go-to person for SOGI resources in their school. But explaining all things SOGI isn’t always easy and it’s definitely not straightforward.

One SOGI Lead in Victoria created a Bite Size SOGI Series that breaks down some of the core concepts into digestible graphics that School Leads can share at staff meetings, or in response to common questions.

There are 12 in all - feel free to download and share.

Sex and Gender
Sex' and 'gender' are often used interchangeably, despite having different meanings.
Gender: socially-constructed roles, behaviours, expressions and identities of girls, women, boys, men and gender diverse people.
Sex: biological attributes of humans and animals, including physical features, chromosomes, gene expression, hormones and anatomy

This simple infographic from the Canadian Institutes of Health Research helps to explain the difference.

They have compiled a short fact-sheet based on a decade of research with LGBTQ that can teach us about student well-being and how we can make schools more welcoming places to improve student health.
