🇮🇳 Today, we celebrate the 5th anniversary of India’s historic decision to strike down Section 377, a move paving the way for a more inclusive society for the LGBTQ+ community. 😳 However, while progress has been made, we know that stigma still persists in wider society. Section 377, a legacy of British colonization, still exists in dozens of countries. 🎬 As global companies, we have a responsibility to create safe spaces for all colleagues. Let us continue this journey of change and acceptance within our organizations. 💡 More context in this Pride Circle post: https://lnkd.in/erCXWwiK ➕Section 377: An Absurd Legacy of British Colonialization (from my LGBTQ+ History Month 2023 series - Week 3): https://lnkd.in/eG-WrDfY #LGBTQ+ #India #Equality #PrideAtWipro #PrideTodayandEveryday Wipro

17/30🌈 Building a culture of visibility will help you to unlock the potential of your role models and allies. 💡Proud to present another compelling #underrepresented voice from our Seeing is Believing #research report, developed in collaboration with Citi. “I wish others would feel more comfortable being senior role models. I get the sense that the reasons that stop them are- a) they see it as a distraction from their professional achievements, b) don't want to be seen to be making a 'fuss,’ and c) do not appreciate the value that their being out gives to those more junior people in the organisation”.

LGBT Great is excited to kick-off Pride with our inspiring Member community! 🏳️🌈 🏳️⚧️ Pride is a month dedicated to celebrating the rich tapestry of LGBTQ+ history and the ongoing pursuit for global equality. A Pivotal Moment in History: In 1969, the Stonewall Uprising in New York City marked a significant turning point, galvanising the LGBTQ+ community for a movement that demanded equal rights and visibility. Since then, the fight for LGBTQ+ equality has led to greater diversity and inclusion in workplaces, fostering creativity and innovation. Pride Month allows us to celebrate this progress and continue building an environment where everyone feels valued and empowered to contribute their best. Kickstart the month by reading about the importance of LGBTQ+ history to our team here at LGBT Great! ➡https://lnkd.in/emG-A9k5 Together, let's create a future where everyone feels valued and can reach their full potential! #TogetherWithPride #Pride #LoveIsLove #LGBTQ #PrideCommunity #PrideMonth #EqualityMatters #PrideCelebration #ProudToBeMe

✨Permanent Recruitment Consultant placing Qualified Social Workers in roles nationwide✨ 💰!!!£250 Refer-a-Friend Bonus!!!💰
🏳️🌈 Addressing the unique needs of LGBTQ+ young people in social care is crucial, yet often overlooked due to a lack of knowledge and guidance. However, a groundbreaking study led by LGBTQ+ charity Stonewall sheds light on the effectiveness of e-learning training for social workers. The results were remarkable, with trained professionals demonstrating increased confidence and knowledge in supporting LGBTQ+ youth. This positive outcome is a promising step towards creating a safe and supportive environment for these vulnerable individuals. While there are some limitations to the research design, it highlights the urgent need for policymakers to implement effective LGBTQ+ training for all qualified social workers and incorporate it into pre-qualifying social work courses. You can read more about the research and training here: Let's work together to combat heteronormative beliefs and improve the social care experience for LGBTQ+ youth, ensuring they receive the support they deserve. 🏳️🌈 #LGBTQ+ #SocialWork #Inclusion #Diversity #Equality

🌈 Pride Month is almost here, and it’s a powerful reminder that Pride is not just a celebration, but also a protest. 🌈 Things are not looking great. While some countries made some positive steps towards LGBTQ+ inclusion, the UK continues to fall behind. As a queer femme, I am appalled and outraged by the continuous mistreatment of trans and non-binary people. Looking at hate crime stats but also day to day discrimination things are dire. While we, as workplaces and companies, get our rainbow flags out and prepare for the pride parades we attend, let's not forget to look inward. What do you do for your LGBTQ+ employees and customers all year around? Do you have learning initiatives that go deeper then just a glossy allyship session? Do you have policies and more importantly a culture that rejects all forms of homophobia, biphobia and transphobia? And lastly, how do you know? Working with over 90 clients in the past few years has showed me that most organisations do not have adequate feedback loops and monitoring iniatives. #PrideMonth #LGBTQ #Advocacy #Diversity #Inclusion #ImpactCulture #DEI #workplaceculture
🌈 Pride Month is almost here, and while we prepare to celebrate, it’s crucial to remember that Pride is not only a celebration but also a protest. 🌈 At Impact Culture, we are committed to highlighting the ongoing struggles and triumphs of the LGBTQ+ community around the world. As part of this commitment, we will be releasing Country Snapshots over the next month, starting with the experiences of LGBTQ+ people in the UK and Germany. 🎥 Check out our latest video on the state of LGBTQ+ rights in the UK. Despite progress in the previous decade, the UK has recently dropped to 15th place in ILGA-Europe’s rankings, highlighting the need for continued advocacy and action. We want to hear from you! What countries would you like to see featured in our upcoming snapshots? Let us know in the comments below. #PrideMonth #LGBTQ #ImpactCulture #Equality #Diversity #Inclusion

🌈 Reflecting on the past 11 years, I’ve been inspired by ILGA-Europe’s Rainbow Europe Index, which has been a vital measure of LGBTQ+ rights across the continent. A decade ago, I was incredibly proud to see the UK leading the charge, holding the number one spot for inclusivity. It was a time filled with hope and progress - but also then with vicious backlash especially regarding trans rights. However, in recent years, Malta has taken the lead, becoming a new beacon of hope and leadership in LGBTQ+ rights. This shift reminds me that legal, societal, and cultural change can happen swiftly and unfortunately can disappear just as quickly. I wish I could say I am not scared, scared for my trans and non-binary siblings, scared for all of us. I am, these are scary times, not just in the UK but across numerous countries. I am trying to root myself in optimism and also rediscovered strength to fight for an inclusive and equitable environment for us all.🌟 #LGBTQ #Equality #Inclusion #Diversity #LGBTQRights #RainbowEurope #ImpactCulture
🌈 Do you know who the top 10 European countries are for LGBTQ+ people? Over the past 11 years, ILGA-Europe’s Rainbow Europe Index has been a crucial barometer of LGBTQ+ rights across the continent. A decade ago, the UK was a trailblazer, proudly holding the number one spot, leading the charge for inclusivity and equality. However, as you can see the UK has dropped completely from the top 10, with Malta holding the top position in recent years. This shift reminds us that legal, societal, and cultural change can happen quickly - unfortunately, both ways. With determination and collective effort, we can create inclusive and supportive environments for all. But it also serves as a stark reminder that progress is fragile. The UK’s slip in the rankings illustrates how swiftly gains can be lost if we become complacent. Now, more than ever, we need to come together, protect our hard-won rights, and ensure that inclusivity and acceptance continue to thrive. Let us be inspired by the progress in Malta and beyond. Let us work together to ensure that every country can be a safe and welcoming place for the LGBTQ+ community. Join us in the fight for an inclusive and equitable society. Together, we can make a difference. 🌟 #LGBTQ #Equality #Inclusion #Diversity #LGBTQRights #RainbowEurope #ImpactCulture #pride #pridemonth
