The Rainbow Action Plan responds to a Council resolution to create a strategy for rainbow communities. It has been developed through engagement with the Council's Takatāpui Rainbow Advisory Council to understand the lived experience of rainbow communities in the city.
Wellington has a significant rainbow population and a strong sense of rainbow identity. Rainbow people in Wellington and nationally report experiencing disparities such as lower life satisfaction, rates of home ownership, and employment compared to the general population. The plan describes how the Council can take action within its role to make the city more inclusive, safe, and equitable for rainbow communities.
