Allies are also welcome in the network &#8211; these are people who are not part of the queer community themselves, but support it and stand up against homophobia and discrimination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Queer Engineer stands for acceptance, tolerance and inclusion. In order to give discrimination and exclusion no place, there is still a lot to do in our society,&#8221; said Managing Director Gabriele K\u00f6ltringer at the kick-off of the internal network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I want to say a special thank you to two students who came to us with a simple question: Why don&#8217;t you tell everyone that this is a queer-friendly place to study?&#8221; said Mark Adams, languages competency field director and community liaison at the university. &#8220;One of them even came out within a course. I&#8217;m proud of the student, but I&#8217;m also proud of the fact that the atmosphere here at Technikum encourages people to be who they are.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;We want to show that we are a safe space for this community, that we welcome everyone, both students and staff*, and that we live an open culture,&#8221; said Nicole Sagmeister, Equality Manager at FH Technikum Wien.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to Adams as a contact person in person, the community also finds points of contact within the &#8220;Students support Students&#8221; network on Discords. In addition, an anonymous feedback form has been set up. Activities are to take place several times a semester. The first will be participation in the Rainbow Parade on June 11 together with other universities. With a &#8220;Museum of Queer Engineer&#8221; in cyberspace, a special accent in terms of visibility will be set in June.
