This year, we’re focussing on the theme of IMAGINING A QUEER FUTURE, exploring practical steps we can take to prepare ourselves for our own futures and how we might be able to predict, imagine and create the kind of futures we need and want to see for our communities and in Singapore.
Most talks and discussions are public: a few are private and all require registration. People of all nationalities welcome to attend. Events are free, but donations are encouraged.
