Safety Beyond Boundaries: Bridging Aerospace and LGBTIQ+ Safety

Join us for an enlightening event titled "Safety Beyond Boundaries", where we delve into the fascinating parallels between aerospace safety and LGBTIQ+ safety. Our goal is to draw insights from the rigorous and evolving safety practices in aerospace to better understand and enhance safety within the LGBTIQ+ community.

Aerospace safety has long been shaped by learning from unforeseen accidents and continuously adapting to meet safety standards. The sector is a model of vigilance and responsiveness, recognizing that safety is an ongoing process that demands constant attention and adaptation.

In much the same way, ensuring safety within the LGBTIQ+ community requires ongoing awareness, flexibility, and proactive measures. Just as the aerospace sector cannot afford to be complacent, neither can we when it comes to fostering a secure and supportive environment for everyone.

At this event, we will explore these parallels through a panel discussion featuring members of the LGBTIQ+ community and key figures from our own faculty. Together, we will examine existing safety practices, identify areas for improvement, and work towards creating an even safer and more inclusive environment—just as the aerospace industry continually strives to do.

Join us in this crucial dialogue as we work together to build not only a safer environment for today but also a secure foundation for the future. Let’s stay vigilant, stay prepared, and understand that the safety of tomorrow begins with the actions we take today!
