BAQC ESEA

British Asian Queer Community for East and Southeast Asians

Next Event: To be confirmed

Our Mission

To build a wider community, offering a space online and offline to meet, network and support each other.
To be more present so that we can have a better, more comprehensive representation of the British East and Southeast Asian Queer Community.
To produce an archive of British East and Southeast Asian queer history, starting from now.

Our Tech4Good Initiative

An open platform where you can easily post, see, share and be notified of events relevant for those who are queer and of East and Southeast Asian heritage.

At BAQC ESEA, we are strong advocates for #tech4good. We want to take the lead in incorporating tech into all aspects of our mission despite us being a grassroot organisation. If you are also a grassroot organisation and have ideas for using technology to promote your cause but unsure of how to implement it, get in touch. We'd love to see how we can support you.

"Coming Out"

In our first event, we are "coming out". Not just in the sense of "coming out" with our sexuality but also coming out as queer ESEAs to be present to be visible, to be better represented.
