Listen "Queer Bol"
Episode Synopsis
This week, Ernst and Daniel from Queer Bol share how they're transforming workplaces - not with big policies, but through real, everyday actions. Like that time an educational poster in the bathroom made a colleague say: "I never knew this - thank you for opening my eyes."
"It's not just about acceptance," says Daniel. "It's about creating space where people can truly be themselves." From rainbow pins to brave conversations, this is how small changes make big impact. What this episode covers• How Queer Bol started – from a simple question to a beautiful community • Why workplace inclusion matters – for employees, companies, and society• The impact of visibility – pins, posters, and safe spaces • Personal stories – overcoming challenges and fostering allyship • What’s next? – Pride collaborations, education, and expanding outreach• https://pro-now.com/en/ • https://coc.nl/en/ (One of the most important LGBTQIA+ focused organisations in the Netherlands) • https://www.transgendernetwerk.nl/ • https://www.movisie.nl/publicatie/feiten-cijfers-lhbtiqa-rij (Lots of numbers and facts) • https://reports.hrc.org/being-an-lgbtq-ally (Great overview about what allyship means, plus a lot of additional useful info)
