About
Following the open-source tradition of The Safe Zone Project, the presenters seek to share best practices for promoting queer inclusivity for university faculty, staff, students, and administrators. We focus particularly on concrete steps that advocates can take for shaping a safer and more inclusive campus climate for gender and sexuality minorities, and argue for framing and contextualizing inclusivity efforts through the lens of the institution’s mission, traditions, and values.
