LGBT activism and representation

LGBT activism on campus plays an important role in the student educational experience: it both protects from discrimination by offering safe spaces to meet each one other and enables to fight against it by politicising sexuality and gender identity issues.

In February 2015 ÌÇÐÄvlog¹ÙÍø celebrated LGBT history month. The #ÌÇÐÄvlog¹ÙÍøpride Festival was launched in the Students’ Union building and more than 20 events were staged throughout the month to campaign for and celebrate the LGBT community at ÌÇÐÄvlog¹ÙÍø and across the city. ÌÇÐÄvlog¹ÙÍø also proudly to flew the rainbow flag on campus for LGBT History Month during February.
