LGBTQ+ Staff Network

Learn about the LGBTQ+ Staff Network, an inclusive group for all LGBTQIA+ staff and PhD students at Sussex.

About the network

The LGBTQ+ Staff Network seeks to raise awareness and understanding of issues affecting the LGBTQIA+ community. It aims to share and celebrate the contributions of LGBTQIA+ people and groups, and amplify or echo LGBTQIA+ voices.

The network also tries to contribute to decision-making processes and policy changes across the university, getting feedback and suggestions from network members throughout the year.

The LGBTQ+ Staff Network delivers activities at different points in the year to commemorate key LGBTQIA+ events, milestones and days of remembrance.
