LGBTQ+ progress pride flag

Not all “rainbow logos” mean real inclusion. How can you tell whether a company truly supports LGBTQ+ inclusion?

Join this session to explore:

  • Why Equality, Diversity & Inclusion (EDI) and LGBTQ+ inclusion matter both legally and ethically
  • What rights and protections exist for LGBTQ+ employees
  • How to identify genuinely inclusive employers and spot the difference between real commitment and rainbow-washing
  • Practical tools and resources you can use to research companies and assess whether they are living their values or simply talking about them

This event will equip you with the knowledge and tools to make informed career choices and confidently navigate the job market as an LGBTQ+ student or ally.

LGBTQ+ History Month happens every February in the UK. The month helps to increase the visibility of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (“LGBT+”) people, their history, lives and their experiences in the curriculum and culture of educational and other institutions, and the wider community.

The event is open to Imperial students and staff and will take place on Microsoft Teams.
