Seminar about transgender rights

The network Academic Pride is also arranging a seminar during the Stockholm Pride week.

A Safer Future is a research project at The Swedish Red Cross University. It focuses on sexual and gender minority forced migrants, including those who identify as LGBTQ+. The project is carried out in close collaboration with people who have lived experience of arriving in Sweden as a forced migrant. In the first phase of the project, which is currently concluding, studies were conducted to build a deeper understanding of the living conditions, health, and wellbeing of this group while residing in Sweden. The project now continues by co-developing a peer support intervention together with community members, which will be evaluated in future research.

About Academic Pride

Academic Pride is a network between several of Stockholm's higher education institutions and associated student unions. This year, in addition to Stockholm University, KI, KTH, Södertörn University and Stockholm School of Economics are also participating. The aim is to make visible the importance of LGBTQI+ issues at the universities, both in terms of research and teaching and in terms of inclusive work and study environments.

How to work in an LGBTQI-inclusive way

Stockholm University works to prevent discrimination and harassment of LGBTQI persons and others through the working environment equal terms measures, which focuses on an inclusive work and study environment through the entire scope of the Discrimination Act.

Here are three tips for working in an LGBTQI-inclusive way:

Increase your knowledge of what LGBTQI people face in their everyday life - there are several online training courses and research on LGBTQI issues.
Use language that is inclusive of LGBTQI people, ask open-ended questions, and promote openness.
Reflect on the norms that influence you and the assumptions you make about gender and sexuality.
