Professor Paula Gerber combines a sharp legal intellect with passionate advocacy to fight for the dismantling of discriminatory systems around the globe. As an academic member of the Castan Centre for Human Rights Law, Paula is a law professor at Monash University, and an internationally renowned expert on human rights law and LGBTQIA+ people.
Paula has written and edited numerous books and articles on human rights issues, and she is regularly featured in the Australian media, including on ABC television and radio, and on The Conversation. She has also developed the website https://antigaylaws.org, basically the Google Maps of global LGBTQIA+ legal landscapes.
Paula is the Chair of Kaleidoscope Human Rights Foundation, a not-for-profit organisation that advocates for better protection of the rights of LGBTQIA+ people in the Asia-Pacific region, where many countries continue to persecute trans and gender-diverse people and criminalise same-sex sexual conduct.
