UURainbow employee network

Logo UU Rainbow Network

The UURainbow network is a network for LGBTIQ+ employees, striving to contribute to making LGBTIQ+ employees feel at home at the university. It does so by promoting social acceptance, supporting people to be visibly themselves and helping create the conditions for a safe environment within the university.

LGBTQI+

The UURainbow network aims to be a platform for issues concerning employees who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex or otherwise sex- and/or gender diverse. It approaches these issues from an intersectional perspective. The UURainbow network is established by a diverse group of employees from different departments and faculties.

The network works together with the HU University of Applied Sciences Utrecht, LGBTIQ+ student organization U.H.S.V. Anteros and other partners when appropriate.

Events

The UURainbow network aims to be a recognizable platform for LGBTIQ+ employees, but it does in no way claim to represent all LGBTIQ+ people within the university. The network invites all employees it may concern to participate in events or in organising them. In 2019 the network already organised a Citywalk, participation in Utrecht Canal Pride and activities on Coming Out Dag.
