Aims:

  • Provide support for members of IOM3 who identify as LGBTQIA+.
  • Raise awareness of LGBTQIA+ contributions, issues and inequalities throughout materials, minerals and mining.
  • Support the development within IOM3 of understanding, policies, and data for diversity, inclusion and equality, particularly with respect to LGBTQIA+ community, within the membership base and the Institute.
