About this event
Just like in other social domains, lesbian, gay, trans, bisexual, intersex, queer, asexual and other identities outside of the cis and hetero-allosexual norms are present in Science, Technology and Innovation, and with them their unique perspectives and challenges. Sharing these experiences can help us recognize biases and inequalities that still exist, promote the participation of our community in knowledge-generating activities and build safer and more inclusive spaces in research.
PRISMA invites members of the LGBTIQA+ community and allies to present their work from all areas of Science, Technology and Innovation. Our goal is to create an interdisciplinary space where we can share knowledge and talk about our lived experiences. Please visit our website (www.conferenciaprisma.org) to learn more about our conference.
Thanks to our sponsors, the Faculdad de Ciencias Matemáticas at Universidad Complutense Madrid, the Instituto de Ciencias Matemáticas (ICMAT) and the IEEE Photonics Society, we can offer this online conference for free. However, if you feel so inclined, you can add a donation during the check-out process. Any donations will go towards future activities by PRISMA, Asociación para la Diversidad Afectivo-Sexual y de Género en Ciencia, Tecnología e Innovación (www.prismaciencia.org). If you don't want to donate anything, that is absolutely fine – just leave the donation field free.

Please also note that we are based in Spain. The conference will be held, for the most part, in English, but one or two sessions may be in Spanish. The language of each session will be indicated in the program, which in turn will be available soon!
