2026 – 20 years of iQt

Why do we need an Institute for Queer Theory – today, more than ever?

because Queer Theory fosters respectful, non-hierarchical encounters with difference!
because un_learning difference is learning nonviolent planetary cohabitation!
because queerversity (rather than diversity) acknowledges and cherishes what is otherwise ignored, disavowed, or excluded!

Queer theory means thinking difference differently – and envisioning livable futures for all.

The iQt strives for pleasure in complexity, confusion, and collaboration under conditons of conflict. This makes you resilient against simplified solutions and dishonest promises!
