Raisa Mulder, artistic researcher & DEI expert
The Queer Library
I am a researcher and practitioner specialising in queer safety and inclusion, Drawing on The Queer Library, a two year sociological and participatory research, I help organisations turn DEI intentions into meaningful practice.
My work helps understand how people experience safety and what organisations can do differently. I work with venues, cultural organisations, event organisers, community spaces, and other organisations that want to create environments where queer people can feel more safe. I offer keynotes, panel talks, workshops, facilitation, and DEI advice, translating complex research into accessible conversations and concrete actions.
