ALMA's History
In 1999 ALMA’s founding members organised and held a conference intended for lesbian doctors and medical students and partners in Lake Macquarie. The conference was successful with 32 attendees and the experiences stimulated the formal creation of the Australian Lesbian Medical Association (now formally known as ALMA) to support queer women in the medical field. ALMA has continued to grow and now provides a supportive community for over 200 lesbian, queer women and non-binary doctors/medical students in Australia and New Zealand from all different specialties.
