Get to know the queer network at Leipzig University

Members will be kept informed about all relevant information regarding participation in regular meetings and events through a newsletter. We encourage everyone who is interested to actively participate, contribute thoughts and ideas, and to spread awareness about this network.

Further information, along with the registration link, can be accessed on the website of the Office for Equality, Diversity and Family Affairs.

As our University firmly opposes any form of discrimination and demands respect for the dignity of all individuals (see Leipzig Declaration), the Office for Equality, Diversity and Family Affairs established a queer network in 2021. This network aims to make queer perspectives visible and promote networking among LGBTQ* (lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans*, inter* and queer) individuals. To ensure that every voice is heard, and every person’s individuality is respected, the queer network at Leipzig University provides a platform for both academic and non-academic staff, as well as trainees. The goal is to foster a culture of acceptance and support and to facilitate an exchange of experiences regarding discrimination and potential courses of action. The network also welcomes those who wish to support queer individuals in their workplace as allies of the LGBTQ* community.
