Paul Kidd
Activist, Writer, and Lawyer in Victoria, Australia
I'm an activist, writer and lawyer in central Victoria, Australia. I'm super gay and I have been living with HIV for many years.
I work as a criminal defence lawyer, and volunteer as a member of the boards of Thorne Harbour Health and the HIV Justice Network. I'm a former Chair of the HIV Legal Woking Group, Living Positive Victoria and the Equality Project Australia.
I hold a Bachelor of Laws with first-class honours from La Trobe University, and a Masters of Laws in Criminal Law and Forensics, from Monash University. I am recognised by the Law Institute of Victoria as an Accredited Specialist in Criminal Law.
I care about ending HIV criminalisation, social justice, human rights, queer liberation, intentional living, progressive politics, beekeeping, brewing, baking and Eurovision, among many other things.
