In 2021, Hilary Oxley and Margaret Curnow, brought a claim to the New Zealand Human Rights Review Tribunal claiming discrimination against LAVA on the basis of LAVA’s political opinions. I believe it's important to support our rights as lesbians, no matter what location in the world we might live. Thank you to Marg for her time and her dedication to protecting lesbian rights.
