After three years of work, coordination and collective commitment, the Inclusive Name Change project is coming to an end! It has now been fully implemented for a few weeks.
This project enables members of the EPFL community to use a preferred/chosen (first)name based on legitimate reasons, as defined within the project framework. It responds to needs expressed by the EPFL community, notably through the open letters from Safe Space (April 2022) and  PlanQueer (May 2022). This achievement was made possible thanks to the efforts and support of many individuals and services. We would like to express our sincere gratitude for this shared and valuable momentum.
To mark this important milestone, and on the occasion of the International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia (IDAHOBIT) on May 17, which this year falls on a Saturday, we are pleased to invite you to an information session and launch event for the Inclusive Name Change project on Tuesday, May 20 from 12:15 to 1:15 pm in room CE1 101.

Programme:

  • Presentation of the project and its scope
  • A friendly moment of discussion and exchange
  • A small surprise activity
  • Light snacks provided
This gathering aims to be both informative and friendly, a chance to launch this collective project together, thank all those involved and celebrate the journey we've shared.
Please feel free to pass this message on or mention it to anyone who may be interested. We hope to see you there!

A short message confirming your presence will help us adjust the food.
