Three great days discussing #LGBTIhealth in Brussel at the "Let's care" conference 🌈

I presented my most recent project PULSAR on the role of LGBTQI #healthcare professionals for inclusive health.

What a treat to be with academics & activists to improve health for our community!

The Trump administration has scrapped more than $800 million worth of research into the health of LGBTQ people, abandoning studies of cancers and viruses that tend to affect members of sexual minority groups, according to an analysis of federal data by The New York Times.

Nearly half of the N.I.H. grants canceled through early May — together worth more than $800 million — addressed the health of sexual and gender minority groups, The Times found.

A UK-wide academic initiative was launched yesterday by non-trans feminist academics and educators (allies) who oppose the recent anti-trans Supreme Court ruling & the concerning EHRC attitude to it called 'Not In Our Name'.

Das ausências completas sobre a população LGBTQIA+, à reposição do guia "Direito a SER nas Escolas", passando pela inclusão da identidade de Género na Constituição, as propostas são espelho dos próprios partidos.

Eleições Legislativas 2025: O que propõem os partidos para os direitos LGBTQIA+?
Das ausências completas sobre a população LGBTQIA+, à reposição do guia "Direito a SER nas Escolas", passando pela inclusão da identidade de Género na Constituição ou o reconhecimento legal de pessoas não binárias, os programas eleitorais para as Eleições Legislativas 2025 diferem entre si e são espelho da importância dada à proteção das minorias. E se nalguns casos a estratégia é holística, noutros a sua ausência é consequência de recuos e desinteresse.

Trump asks? We answer.

Academic freedom is non-negotiable.
We'll respond to Trump's anti-DEI obsession w/ more & more research on each of the forbidden words, more & more books to fill the shelves emptied by force, more & more transfeminist & queer PhD programmes.
