Dear Member
We are pleased to announce that the INTO, NEU and UTU are hosting a joint webinar to raise awareness on International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia, commonly known as IDAHOBIT. The event will be held on Wednesday, 17 May 2023 from 4pm – 5pm via Zoom.
IDAHOBIT is an important day for many organisations, including teacher unions, to draw attention to the discrimination faced by the LGBT+ community and to promote and encourage inclusion. We believe that it is our collective responsibility to educate ourselves and promote inclusion within our own communities.
The webinar will be presented by Jo McParland from Cara-friend. Jo is the Education and Training Manager at Cara-Friend, responsible for the coordination and delivery of training to students and staff in education, as well as assisting schools to achieve our LGBTQI+ Inclusive Schools’ Charter.
We strongly encourage our members to attend this informative and insightful webinar, which will help to raise awareness about IDAHOBIT and equality issues more generally. It is a great opportunity to learn from experts and to ask questions.

We look forward to seeing you there!
