The LGBT Workplace Symposium in Chennai, India will be held on May 18 and 19 2017.
This event, the first of its kind in Chennai, will be hosted by Workplace Pride Member, RELX (formerly Reed Elsevier) and will be co-organized by Workplace Pride and Indian NGO, Solidarity Foundation.
The LGBT Workplace Symposium in Chennai will bring together organizations representing employers, employees and civil society to address the specific challenges of being LGBT in the Indian workplace. It will develop a shared understanding of the local challenges, as well as strategies and tactics to address these challenges. Perhaps most importantly, it will establish a network of support that lasts well beyond the event and be an agent for on-going change and improvement.
Previous events in India have laid the groundwork for the symposium by raising awareness of LGBT issues. Here we will take this good work forward by creating practical and sustainable initiatives that have an immediate effect on employers, employees and the business-political establishment as a whole.
