Queer Action Collective (QuAC)

2025 SRC Queer Officers: Jesper Duffy, Wendy Thompson

The USyd Queer Action Collective (QuAC) is a student activist group fighting for queer liberation on and off campus. Last year, we exposed the University’s transphobic and anti-refugee ‘Campus Access Policy’, which attempts to suppress political dissent by threatening students’ enrolment. We then successfully challenged the University’s suspension and deportation of an transgender, asylum seeking student. We also challenged the Labor Party’s careless outing of a queer student and got Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras’ policies changed to better protect at-risk youth.

We organise rallies for trans justice, co-hosting Trans Day of Visibility and Trans Day of Resistance, and hold queer contingents to protests in solidarity with Palestine and to counter the racist far-right on our streets. We host educational forums and movie nights to raise awareness around police abolition, transformative justice, and sex workers’ rights, and we fight transphobia, Zionist pinkwashing, rape culture, and anti-sex work bigotry on campus. We will continue these fights on and off campus, including at NTEU strikes this year, and hope you will join us! Find us on Instagram @usydqueer or fortnightly in the Queerspace and on Zoom.
