LGBT rights activism
Prior to running for office, Greenwich was the National Convener of Australian Marriage Equality and was named as one of Samesame.com.au's 25 most influential Gay and Lesbian Australians.[4] As National Convener, Greenwich was instrumental in lobbying the Australian Bureau of Statistics to count same-sex marriages in the national census, organised over 11,000 submissions to be made to the 2011 senate inquiry into same-sex marriage, and was a prominent lobbyist in the ongoing campaign to achieve same-sex marriage reform in Australia. In May 2012, Greenwich married his German long-term partner, Victor Hoeld in Argentina where same-sex marriage is legal .[5]
