Pride Month Hub

SSRN’s Pride Month Hub highlights early-stage research related to the pursuit of equal justice, equal opportunities, and greater acceptance for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer/questioning (LGBTQ+) individuals. Pride month is celebrated globally in June to honor the 1969 Stonewall Resistance at the Stonewall Inn in New York City, marking the beginning of a movement to outlaw discriminatory laws and practices against the LGBTQ+ community. Pride Month marks an opportunity to come together and challenge the bias and inequalities that remain and create a more inclusive world.

SSRN, Elsevier’s world-leading platform devoted to the rapid worldwide dissemination of early-stage research, is committed to advancing societal progress through quality knowledge and education. Research on SSRN is free to download and upload.
