LGBTQ+ network
Do you believe that our university can engage more in becoming more inclusive?
Do you have ideas to put gender and sexual diversity even more on the map?
Do you feel like taking (a small or a big) part in the development of a LGBTQ+ network at our university?
The LGBTQ+ network is a vibrant network of staff as well as students, LGBTQ+ persons as well as ‘straight allies’ that stands for bottom-up policy making, the development and support in certain actions and the sensitization on LGBTQ+. The focus is not only research.
The network had a first meeting in April 2019 and gathers 2 to 3 times in a year.
Do you want to stay ahead on our activities or do you want to participate?
Please let us know by sending an e-mail to diversiteit@uantwerpen.be
