Professor Surya Monro helped to make a European Conference supporting the rights and wellbeing of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) people a resounding success. The conference, Proud in Europe? LGBTI Emancipation in Comparative Perspective took place at the University of Amsterdam in August 2016.
Professor Monro moderated a panel titled ‘LGBTQI rights in Europe: Trends, opportunities and challenges’, interviewing officials from Amsterdam, Berlin, Turin, and Mexico City, as well as providing a summary discussion which drew together key themes.
The Rainbow Cities network is a fast-growing network which supports the public sector, non-governmental organisations and academics in helping to address policy issues that concern lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer and intersex (LGBTQI) people internationally.
