Registration is still open for the Researching the Rainbow Conference from 15.00 – 20.00 on Thursday 15 February 2018 in Grimond Lecture Theatre 1 on the University of Kent Canterbury campus.

We strongly suggest you register online to confirm your place. Please find the agenda attached. We are delighted to announce renowned non-binary trans activists Fox and Owl will be speaking!

The conference, which forms part of the University’s LGBT History Month celebrations, is to showcase the vast array of excellent research being done on or related to LGBT+ people and issues, and to encourage multi-disciplinary collaboration and networking. The conference will be opened by University of Kent Vice-Chancellor and President, Professor Karen Cox, who also acts at the University’s Executive Group LGBT+/Gender Champion.

Topics include transsexuality in mental health care and the legal system, queer representation in the media, and the decolonization of sexuality, from students and academics from a range of schools and disciplines, as well as external partners.

If you would like to display a research poster, please email: lgbtstaffnetwork@kent.ac.uk by Tuesday 13 February.

The conference is free and all are welcome. Please forward this invitation to any colleagues/friends who may be interested.

Refreshments will be provided and gender neutral toilets are available.
