Welcome to LnuGBTQ+

LnuGBTQ+ is an association for queer people studying at Linnaeus University. We want to want to create a safe and pleasant place for all people despite sexuality and gender identity. The association is still in its early stages, so this website will be subject to change. In the future, it will include a calendar of all events and various links to useful resources. At the moment the page is more or less empty and most of the activities are organized on the private Discord channel. If you are interested, follow us on instagram or join us via the discord link below.

About the organization

We started in the beginning of September 2022 by Alva Palmfeldt, Beatrice Wahlund and Iris Flystam as a half-baked idea.

However, we quickly realized that this was something that could have been interesting to others as well. After a quick Google search, we did not find any other organization at LNU that focused on queer students. Thus, we created LnuGBTQ+

The purpose of this association is to create a gathering place for LGBT/Queer students at Linnaeus University. This is both with physical gathering and via the internet using various channels such as Discord.
