Australia’s 2026 census is set to be its most progressive yet, introducing groundbreaking questions on sexual orientation and gender identity for the first time — a major step toward reflecting the nation’s true diversity.

While an intersex question was considered, it won’t appear this year. All data will be anonymized to protect privacy, and results are expected by June 2027 — shaping everything from healthcare to transport for years to come.
