Career Panel • Global Careers for LGBTQ Folk

October 5, 2021 @ 4:00 pm - 5:15 pm

Members of the LGBTQ+ community play key roles in international business, diplomacy, advocacy, and scholarship, but they can also face unique challenges in global careers because of their sexuality, sexual orientation, gender identity, and/or gender expression (on top of all the other challenges of global careers). This panel brings together members of the LGBTQ+ community who are navigating careers that cross borders and tackle international issues to talk about some of the continuing challenges, unique opportunities, and best strategies for pursuing global careers as a queer person.

Our panelists come from different sectors and work on different parts of the world:

The discussion will be moderated by Prof. Holning Lau, a scholar of law and LGBTQ rights and Willie Person Mangum Professor of Law at UNC with an expertise on Asia.

This panel will take place virtually on Zoom.
