Save the date – An Inclusive Working Life for LGBTI People

In the Nordic region, as well as internationally, working life conditions for many in the LGBTI group are worse than for the majority population. Studies have shown that LGBTI people are more likely to experience harassment and discrimination in working life, both at work and in recruitment processes.
These conditions can have serious consequences for LGBTI people’s finances, quality of life and health. Particularly vulnerable groups include young LGBTI people, transgender people and LGBTI people with ethnic minority backgrounds.
The seminar will build on existing Nordic knowledge, providing a comprehensive picture of the current situation. Programme participants will share insights from research, policy and practice. The aim is to bring together experts and key actors in the field from across the region, provide an opportunity to share knowledge, enable dialogue and enhance Nordic co-operation on LGBTI people’s working life conditions.
Please mark 23 May in your calendar and register here. A detailed programme will be sent out later.
The seminar is implemented by Nordic Information on Gender, NIKK, in cooperation with The Nordic Council of Ministers and LGBT+ Danmark.
Target group
The seminar’s target group is broad and includes representatives from relevant ministries/departments, employers’ organisations, trade unions, civil society, equality bodies, authorities and other stakeholders working strategically with inclusion and diversity in working life.
