  • Location:

Via Zoom video conference.
What do LGBT people experience during an internship or at work? While there may certainly be clearly inappropriate remarks and discriminatory attitudes, even with good intentions, are we certain that we are creating a truly inclusive environment? The short film “La case,” which producer Claire Beffa will discuss live, will highlight these situations regularly experienced by LGBT people. At theUM, we’ve developed a brochure to provide supervisors with guidance on how to improve inclusion. This roundtable will be an opportunity to present it before distributing it throughout our organizations and, together with you, to explore actions that will allow us to take inclusion even further.

Speakers:

  • Agnès Fichard-Carroll, Executive Vice President for “University Social Responsibility”;
  • Claire Beffa, founder of LaClairière Production, a documentary film production company specializing in personal accounts related to the fight against all forms of discrimination.
