Welcome to the webpage of the LGBTQIA+ community at PSI
We are a group dedicated to fostering queer well-being, representation and advocacy at PSI.
In Switzerland, individuals who are Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans, Queer/Questioning, Intersex, Agender/Asexual/Aromantic or belong to other sexual or gender minorities (LGBTQIA+) still face prejudice, discrimination, and structural inequalities, and have to cope with a lack of acceptance. [1]
As an inclusive employer, PSI strives to advance the visibility and recognition of gender and sexual diversity. Our LGBTQIA+ group established in 2023 at PSI provides a safe and welcoming space where individuals can freely express themselves and connect with like-minded peers. Anyone is welcome, whether you self-identify as queer, openly or not, whether you just start to question your identity, or whether you simply have a genuine interest in positively engaging with the LGBTQIA+ community, as allies or parents of queer children, for example.
We are all aware of and abide by PSI’s code of conduct “Respect”: https://www.psi.ch/en/respekt/code-of-conduct-respect
