Neuroqueer: What does this mean?
‘Neuroqueer’ refers to those who identify as both neurodivergent and queer. Neuroqueer people may find that their neurodivergence can affect their experience of gender or sexuality, and vice versa. This means that their experiences and struggles may not be fully reflected in resources for either neurodivergent or queer people.
Anonymous Question Service
We recognise that there are barriers to asking about LGBTQUIA+ inclusive and queer practice, and are committed to breaking down those barriers.
LGBTQUIA+ Student Experience Research
The programme is seeking a better institutional understanding of LGBTQUIA+ students' experiences at Warwick.
LGBTQUIA+ Staff Experience Insight
The programme is working with Social Inclusion to further our institutional understanding of LGBTQUIA+ staff experiences at Warwick.
