LGBT+ people in polar research at British Antarctic Survey
Polar Pride is celebrated every year on November 18th as part of an ongoing effort to celebrate those who are LGBTQ+ in Polar Science. This was started by the British Antarctic Territory and South Georgia & the South Sandwich Islands governments with the Diversity in Polar Science Initiative (DiPSI) in 2020, with responsibility for promoting and organising the day later taken on by the UK Polar Network. A recent blog post by Dr James Lea highlighted why Pride is still important for LGBTQ+ Polar scientists and allies. Each year the EDI Officers at UKPN work hard to raise awareness of Polar Pride around the world and encourage organisations/individuals to join the UKPN celebrating on November 18th.
