INTERNATIONAL PARTNERSHIP FOR QUEER YOUTH RESILIENCE
|
The International Partnership for Queer Youth Resilience is an interdisciplinary and multilingual research partnership designed to understand and support the resilience of LGBTQ+ youth through
technology-engaged research and practice.
WE'RE RECRUITING! |
International Youth Advisory Board
We're currently seeking enthusiastic youth to join our International Youth Advisory Board (IYAB). The IYAB is designed to include youth voices in INQYR’s research process, with a particular focus on providing input on research with LGBTQ+ youth and the use of information and communication technologies in a global context. Our goal is to connect with a variety of youth across the globe, so that we have equal representation, that multiple voices are heard, and that the work we do continues to be informed by young people. |

The International Student Training Network (ISTN)
second cohort is fully recruited! The ISTN is designed to train the next generation of scholars to conduct research with Gender and Sexual Minority Youth (GSMY), with a particular focus on strengthening resilience through utilization of information and communication technologies (ICTs) in a global context. |
The ISTN’s instructors have helped guide my career path and provided opportunities for me build my research skills. The ISTN provides a level of LGBTQ+-specific education that I could never obtain at my home institution. I cannot begin to explain how much this educational experience means to me. To say thank you does not feel like a significant enough statement to express my gratitude, but thank you. |
🇲🇽 FROM THE MEXICO REGIONAL NETWORK 🇲🇽
|
The Mexican Regional Network completed its first project, based on focus groups and photo elicitation research with LGBT youth in three major Mexican cities. This project has allowed the network to send out its first academic paper for publication. We are currently working on three other projects which we hope to have finished by the end of 2020. Despite the difficulties we have faced in continuing our work and activism, more researchers have hopped on board the regional network. We are happy to continue our research in collaboration with experienced and senior researchers in LGBT health such as Dr. Luis Ortiz-Hernandez, and with younger and fresh researchers like Miguel Corral (PhD candidate).

La Red Regional de México terminó su primer proyecto, que usó grupos focales y foto-elicitación con juventudes LGBT en tres grandes metrópolis del país. Este proyecto nos permitió enviar a dictaminación un primer artículo académico y estamos trabajando en otros tres que esperemos puedan estar terminados para finales del 2020. A pesar de las dificultades en continuar con nuestra agenda activista, estamos muy emocionades de que podamos continuar nuestros proyectos de investigación con investigadores con conocida trayectoria en salud LGBT como el Dr. Luiz Ortíz-Hernández y con investigadores jóvenes como Miguel Corral (candidato a doctor).
