Running to celebrate diversity and inclusion 🏳️🌈👟
Yesterday, the #ClearstreamTeam joined the Luxembourg Pride Run during #Pride Week to show their support for the LGBTIQ+ community and for creating a more inclusive and equal society.
We look forward to standing up for the LGBTIQ+ community and representing our Deutsche Börse#OneGlobalTeam at these upcoming events:
🌈 Luxembourg Pride Street Fest, 13–14 July
🌈 Cork LGBT+ Pride Festival, 5 August
🌈 Prague Pride Festival, 5–11 August
🌈 Frankfurt Pride, 8–11 August
We hope to see you there!
Well done to all the runners and thank you for standing up for the LGBTIQ+ community! 🙏 Demonstrating support and acceptance is a key element of our values at Clearstream und Deutsche Börse and something we truly strive to live up to in and outside the workplace during Pride Month and beyond.
Did you know that February is LGBT History Month?
The date coincides with the abolition of Section 28 of the Local Government Act in 2003, and serves as an opportunity for employers to take meaningful steps in supporting LGBT equality.
What do you have planned this month to show your support and commitment to lasting inclusivity? 🙌

🌈 Useful insight for LGBT+ Network Sponsors & Chairs struggling to be clear on their purpose - the most important thing for your networks is to provide a safe space and sense of belonging for LGBT+ colleagues.

I was absolutely delighted to be invited to be part of the first Azets Live Round Table celebrating Pride Month in the UK, in fact we recorded it only last week in July, because Pride isn't just one month (in fact not all of the countries in Azets celebrate in June - they do so on other dates), but importantly its something we should be celebrating and speaking about every month (alongside many other important topics). a massive thank you to Julie Gunnell for being an amazing host and ally.
❗ ❗ ❗ A couple of things really struck me being involved in this short but impactful session:-
1. Its not an easy thing putting yourself out there and discussing your struggles and challenges - but we did it, because its important for people to see that real people are behind these things and perhaps our stories can help another person going through similar! Shaun Croxall & Amber Yates (my partners in crime) were brave and inspirational sharing their stories, I was very proud to do this with you! 💖
2. People are truly interested in listening and learning how to become Allies - we had amazing engagement from people, good questions and good wishes - we really appreciated all of them! 🙌
3. Maybe just maybe we can help another human being just by being our authentic selves and sharing a little bit of ourselves.
There is so much more I could say, but I want to say thank you to everyone who attended, those who have sent their wishes, their questions and offered a hand of support. And to those people in the LGBTQ+ community don't suffer in silence, there are those who want to help, give support and be your ally.
To those of you who want to be allies, ill share what I shared with our colleagues.....
🌈 Be an Ally: Actively show support for LGBTQ+ rights and issues. This can be as simple as using inclusive language, wearing pride symbols, or participating in LGBTQ+ events and initiatives.
🌈 Listen and Learn: Take the time to listen to and understand the experiences and challenges faced by LGBTQ+ individuals. Educate yourself about LGBTQ+ issues and be open to learning from others.
🌈 Challenge Discrimination: Speak up against any form of discrimination or insensitive remarks, even if they seem minor. Your support can make a big difference in creating a respectful and accepting workplace.
🌈 Promote Inclusivity: Advocate for policies and practices that promote inclusivity and support our networks.
🌈 Offer Support: Let your LGBTQ+ colleagues know that they have your support. Sometimes, a simple expression of solidarity can make a big impact.
By taking these actions, non-LGBTQ+ colleagues can help create a more inclusive and supportive environment.
Finally, a massive shout out to the #AuthenicallyAzets network group, you are doing amazing things and to Rebecca Flynn & Samantha Graham for supporting with the event!!!! And of course to Jordan Evans our IT superhero - Thank you

It was a proud moment to watch our first Azets Live Round Table event hosted by Julie Gunnell, who spoke to David Whitson-Black, Amber Yates and Shaun Croxall. As part of our Authentically Azets Pride Month celebrations, our colleagues discussed how they navigate being part of the LGBT+ community, what they would say to their younger selves and what advice they would give to their colleagues when it comes to understanding and supporting their LGBT+ colleagues. It was wonderful to hear how comfortable all three feel working at Azets and we now know that all questions are welcome and that being an ally is about asking those questions.

#IpsosInsight - 🏳️🌈 The latest Ipsos LGBT+ #Pride Report shows Thailand is emerging as a global leader in LGBT+ rights and protections with exceptionally strong support for LGBT+ inclusion.
A staggering 84% of Thais believe LGBT+ people should be protected from discrimination in employment, housing, and access to businesses, highest percentage of support among 23 countries surveyed.
This strong support extends to transgender rights as well. An impressive 89% of Thais back anti-discrimination measures for transgender individuals. This unwavering support translates into a desire for broader legal protections, with 73% favouring laws that prohibit discrimination against the LGBT+ community across various sectors.

Across many of the anti-LGBTQ+ attacks that have surged through legislatures in recent years is the tactic of preemption – which limits the authority of local governments and lawmakers to pass measures protecting LGBTQ+ individuals and families. From anti-transgender medical care bans to efforts to censor inclusive curriculum to bans on drag performance, abusive preemption runs through the heart of this barrage – and together, we must resist these efforts. Read how in a new white paper we just published in partnership with A Better Balance and Equality Federation: https://lnkd.in/e4Wzbf45#PreemptingProgress
