#N/A
I am gay and I am a geographer and social researcher. //
In 2011 I realized that I can be the driver of change not only within my own field of study, but also within a wider community. I thought hard out of the black box, and for this I had to face criticism, but also met allies and found out meaning in my life. I began queering Czech human geography and contributed to understanding of heteronormativity within it and beyond. Today I also work on developing LGBTQ psychology and run a Czech-based NGO called Queer Geography by which I want to reach beyond academia to You.
