OUR VALUES
Visibility
Pride in STEM works to highlight issues as well as strategies to bring those changes forward. Pride in STEM is there to give a platform and support for LGBTQIA+ people in STEM so they can be visible, as well as to provide a voice for those members of our community who cannot safely be publicly out.
Intersectionality
Pride in STEM is committed to support and deliver intersectional changes to STEM disciplines. Underrepresented groups might belong to different gender identities, have different gender expression, sexual orientations, ethnicities. They might have disabilities.
