Description

 *UPDATE: Due to high interest, this event has moved to a bigger venue. It will now take place in C26 (West Concourse Lounge), Portland Building.*

We are delighted to welcome Gendered Intelligence — a not-for-profit Community Interest Company — to the University of Nottingham to present 'Trans Awareness: The Basics'.  

The mission of Gendered Intelligence is to increase understandings of gender diversity through creative ways. Its vision is of a world where people are no longer constrained by narrow perceptions and expectations of gender, and where diverse gender expressions are visible and valued. 

'Trans awareness: the basics' will:

  • Set the wider context for trans identities - how sex, gender and sexual orientation interact
  • Explore key terms and uses of language
  • Offer basic grounding in the legislation around the rights and responsibilities around trans identities
  • Begin to explore how an organisation can ensure it is being trans-inclusive

The talk will finish with a Q&A session, giving you an opportunity to focus the session on the key issues that matter to you.

This event — part of LGBT History Month 2018 — is open to UoN staff only.
