Queer is
everyone’s
business
The PROUT AT WORK-Foundation increases awareness of queer topics in the workplace in ways that can be seen, felt and experienced.
That way, equal opportunities for queer people become a matter of course, a part of everyday life, and talents and energies can be fully realised.
This openness benefits everyone: individuals and companies, society and business.
Where we come in
PROUT AT WORK is a leading German think tank, providing advice and shaping the debate on queer topics in the workplace. Our goal is equal opportunities for people of any sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression or sexual characteristics.
We support and guide individuals, networks, companies and organisations by providing strategic guidance on workplace culture as well as educational services and sensitivity training for employees and executives.
Together, we can increase our scope for action and shape today’s and tomorrow’s society.
