Research has demonstrated that attempts to change the sexual and gender orientation of LGBT people do not work, but little is known about their impacts or the extent of their practice in Australia. This project aims to investigate the history, scale and nature of LGBT conversion therapy in Australia. Robust data on Australian conversion practices will be collected through a national survey, life history interviews and focus groups with spiritual and mental health care providers. These data will be used to establish the impacts of conversion practices and develop resources to support improved spiritual care of LGBT people. The findings will benefit society, supporting social cohesion in the fraught area of religious and LGBT rights.

研究表明，改变LGBT人的性和性别取向的尝试不起作用，但对他们在澳大利亚的影响或实践程度知之甚少。该项目旨在调查澳大利亚LGBT转化疗法的历史，规模和性质。关于澳大利亚conversion依实践的强大数据将通过国家调查，生活史访谈以及与精神和精神卫生保健提供者的焦点小组一起收集。这些数据将用于建立转化实践的影响，并开发资源以支持改善LGBT人的精神护理。这些发现将使社会受益，并在宗教和LGBT权利的充实领域中支持社会凝聚力。
