Lesbian Visibility Week (LVW), Founded by Linda Riley, Publisher Diva Magazine provides a great opportunity for your company or organisation to platform LGBTQ+ female and non-binary voices.
Research shows that queer women are looking for greater visibility across business, the media and in advertising.
Three quarters of LGBTQ+ women and non-binary professionals are reluctant to fully come out at work, a study conducted by MyGWork in 2023 has found. The study further found that 7 out of 10 LGBT women and those who are non-binary experience discrimination at work. Additionally, 79% said it is tougher for LBGT women and non-binary people to break the glass ceiling than straight cis-gender women.
