LGBT university teachers invite a GALHA speaker

GALHA has received an invitation from the Association of University Teachers to address its annual meeting for lgbt members to be held in London on 16 March 2006.

The AUT Policy officer - equal opportunities, Charlotte Church, said that the lgbt members see the meeting as the opportunity to meet to exchange views, discuss current issues, debate policy and set priorities for the coming year. In particular they have expressed interest in having a discussion this year about the challenges raised by forthcoming legislation on religious discrimination, hatred, etc.

GALHA's speaker will be Andrew Copson, a committee member who has recently been appointed Education and Public Affairs Officer for the British Humanist Association.
