The idea of identity, of not knowing who we are, what we stand for has been an internal struggle for many. For some of us our identities are restricted to the work we do, for some its our families, and for some it might be friends and our position in society. I thought of kickstarting 2024, with the debate of identity in academia. Don’t worry this is still a science communication podcast, but recognising and talking openly about the issues of suppression is essential to practise knowledge, seeking the truth and bringing more impact in research.
Today’s guest, as I put it to him is “devilishy handsome” multifaceted professional with a deep commitment to mental health, education, and advocacy within diverse communities. As a psychotherapist, clinical supervisor, and lecturer at University of Toronto’s Mark S Bohnham Centre for sexual diversity studies - I have Rahim Thawer here with me. Rahim's expertise extends across various domains, from facilitating discussions on innovative approaches to queer relationships to advocating for harm reduction, sex positivity, anti-oppression, and trauma-informed practices.
This conversation is aimed to educate the masses about the gender vs sex debate, to inform the community about the marginilazation of LGBTQA+ and about above empower the masses to strive for they own voice. Connect with Rahim-
