InterInvest LGBT+ equality and inclusion’s Post

🌈 𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐰𝐞 𝐞𝐧𝐬𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐧𝐨 𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐠𝐞𝐭𝐬 𝐥𝐞𝐟𝐭 𝐛𝐞𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐝?🌈 This year‘s theme for International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia and Biphobia is „No one left behind: Equality, Freedom and Justice for all“. It's a reminder that we each play a role in creating a #betterworld where everyone feels included and supported, regardless of who they are or who they love. To achieve this, we must actively challenge discrimination and promote inclusivity in our communities, workplaces, and beyond. It's about speaking out against injustice, amplifying marginalized voices, and advocating for policies that protect the rights and dignity of LGBTQ+ individuals. Together, we can create spaces where everyone feels safe to be their authentic selves. Let's share our stories and learn from one another. What are some tangible actions individuals can take to support LGBTQ+ rights and inclusion in their communities?

In 2023, the U.S. saw a staggering rise in anti-LGBTQ+ bills introduced, marking a pivotal moment in our fight for equality. But here's the truth: Legislation alone won't dismantle discrimination. Real activism is the key. Workplace and housing discrimination against LGBTQ+ individuals is pervasive, insidious, and unacceptable. Every person deserves to work and live free from fear of prejudice and discrimination based on who they are or who they love. We must raise our voices, stand in solidarity, and demand change. It's not enough to be passive allies; we must actively advocate for policies and practices that protect LGBTQ+ rights. Together, we can create workplaces and communities where everyone is treated with dignity and respect, regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity. Let's keep the momentum going, because #EqualityCantWait. 🏳️🌈 Join our Fight for Equality. Share This Post, Lets Bring Awareness.

As Pride Month comes to a close, I am filled with gratitude and reflection. Celebrating the vibrant history, resilience, and contributions of the LGBTQ+ community is not confined to June; it’s a year-round commitment. As someone who researches diversity, equity, and inclusion in the workplace, I witness firsthand the transformative power of inclusion. Diversity is not just a metric to be measured but a profound source of creativity and innovation. Our workplaces thrive when everyone can bring their whole selves to the table. Let’s continue to champion policies that protect LGBTQ+ rights, foster inclusive environments, and amplify queer voices. Remember, true allyship means standing up, speaking out, and taking actionable steps every single day. Together, we can create spaces where everyone feels seen, heard, and valued. Pride is more than a month; it’s a movement toward equality and justice. #Pride2024 #LGBTQ+ #DiversityandInclusion #EqualityForAll

🌈 Happy Pride! Do We Still Need It? 🌈 In recent times, we've witnessed a troubling rise in anti-LGBTQ+ sentiments around the world. This resurgence of discrimination and intolerance, not to mention that being LGBTQ+ is still illegal in many countries. This clearly underscores the critical importance of celebrating Pride. Pride is not just a celebration; it's a powerful statement of visibility and resistance. It provides a platform for the LGBTQ+ community to be seen and heard, challenging the prejudices and stereotypes that fuel discrimination. By coming together, we foster a culture of acceptance and inclusivity, demonstrating that love and equality are non-negotiable rights. Let's stand together and celebrate Pride, not just for the LGBTQ+ community, but for a more inclusive and just society for all. 🏳️🌈💪 READ MORE HERE 🔗 https://lnkd.in/gT3cSkVm #Pride2024 #LGBTQ #Inclusion #Equality #StandTogether #LoveIsLove #StudioWhiteNoise

LGBTQ+ - #IntentionallyInclusive On Tuesday Northern Trust technology were proud to host an event run by LGBT Great on Intersectional Allyship. We are proud to partner with LGBT Great and appreciate their guidance on how we can continue to increase inclusion within our workplace. They talked about 9 types of ally: Advocate, Educator, Amplifier, Disrupter, Strategist, Organiser, Listener, Mentor and Sponsor. The type of ally that we are may vary depending on the situation. The one that really resonated with me was listener. This is so important – not just to be an advocate but to truly listen so that we can understand how we can best support people and continue to grow our inclusivity. One of our cultural behaviours at Northern Trust is to be #IntentionallyInclusive – that means conscious and unconscious action to make everyone feel part of something. Diversity in all its forms is vital to ensure we reflect the world in which we live and ensure that the technology we support and create is the best it can be. Northern Trust are proud to partner with LGBT Great to continue our focus on being #IntentionallyInclusive Thanks as always to Naomi Masterson and Kaitlyn Klapperich for organising and to Matt Cameron 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ and Shreyas Dutta for your thoughts and guidance. #IntentionallyInclusive #listener #Ally #LGBTQ+

There are few corporate initiatives as important as creating diverse, equitable, and inclusive spaces for the LGBTQ+ community.     According to EY, Gen Z is six times more likely to identify as LGBTQ+ compared to Gen X, and with Gen Z making up 30% of the workforce by 2030, this underscores the growing necessity for inclusive policies in the workplace.    While we celebrate and uplift the progress that has been made over the past few decades, we simultaneously acknowledge that we as a society have a long way to go in ensuring that every workplace embraces diversity, promotes equity, and empowers all individuals.     Our work in this space inspires deep hope for what's to come. We see the tides of change growing stronger each and every year as forward-looking organizations take bold steps towards a future that celebrates everyone.  #IgnitingBoldFutures #Inclusivity #PRIDE #LGBTQ
