Getting the facts
In January 2017, Workplace Pride and Leiden University created the world’s first university professorship (Chair) dedicated exclusively to LGBTI workplace inclusion. The Workplace Pride Chair holder is Dr. Jojanneke van der Toorn. With the generous support of Foundation Member KPN, the 5-year duration of the Chair will take this topic to a new level of scientific scrutiny, benefiting employers, employees, the academic world and the LGBTI community alike.
