In June 2020, the 4TU.NIRICT research centre launched the ‘’Diversity-Equity-Inclusion’’ (DEI) fund to support projects that boost diversity, equity and inclusion within the 4TU ICT community.
One of the projects that has been awarded funding is Building community of LGBTIQ+ ICT researchers. The goal of this project is to create a healthy community of LGBTIQ+ researchers working on different areas of ICT.
They have already designed a poster to highlight and celebrate some of the most important LGBTIQ+ contributors to the field of ICT and their achievements and now they have also created a document with a series of do’s and don’ts that can contribute to creating a more inclusive classroom for LGBTIQ+ students in ICT.
