Queering Nature: Exploring 2SLGBTQIA+ Perspectives in Ecology and Environmentalism

Join us for an evening of rich conversation at the intersection of queerness, environmentalism, and ecological thinking. The event will feature a screening of Animal Pride: Nature’s Coming Out Story, a film that challenges conventional ideas about nature and sexuality. Following the screening, a panel of 2SLGBTQIA+ community members from diverse nature-based disciplines—including ecology, farming, and environmental activism—will explore how queer perspectives reshape our understanding of the natural world, fostering more inclusive and holistic approaches to science, conservation, and sustainability.
