Making Education LGBTQ+ Inclusive
a podcast - a research platform - a community network
Pride & Progress
Pride & Progress was founded in 2020 by two teachers who wanted to make education more LGBTQ+ inclusive. Five years later, Pride & Progress is a podcast, an award-winning book, a platform for research, and an active community network for LGBTQ+ teachers and researchers.
We believe that every educational space should be a place where every person feels free to be themselves, feels safe, feels seen, feels supported, and feels like they belong.
