Queer Geography z. s. (QG) is a professional think - tank, i.e. a group of experts, scientific, pedagogical, and professional staff, as well as other people interested in interdisciplinary understanding and study of human sexuality (sexualities), gender identity (identities), and issues related to them.

The QG focuses on promoting holistic, syndemic and therefore biopsychosocial understanding of related social and health problems, questions or challenges; in the sense of contributing to more effective acceptance of sexual and gender diversity within the wider society, reducing stigmatization, discrimination, and the removal of other normative, institutional, legal or other barriers to the quality of life of some people.

QG will stimulate interdisciplinary collaboration, streamline knowledge transfer between disciplines, and promote new interdisciplinary fields such as geographies of sexualities, LGBTQ psychology, and social epidemiology.

The aim of the QG is to contribute to the improvement of the life situation of people whose daily (social, health, cultural, etc.) living reality is or may be affected by their differences in sexuality, gender identity, HIV sero-starus, mental health or other factors, which are related to this difference.

QG has a primary interest in contributing to the improvement of the life situation of non-heterosexual people, people with gender non-conformities, HIV-positive people, people living with AIDS and other people affected by the syndemics of minority stress, stigmatization or discrimination; or whose life situation stagnates or deteriorates due to insufficient level of knowledge or insufficient knowledge transfer between individual fields of enquiry.
