summary_computer_generatedThe keynote address by Professor Welby Ings at the Rainbow Studies Now symposium, held at Te Herenga Waka - Victoria University of Wellington on November 23, 2023, delves into the multifaceted aspects of queer research and community legacies. The speech, titled "Building the Family Home, Growing Queer Research Inside Our Institutions," is introduced by Dr. Rebekah Galbraith and centers on the establishment of Ia, a pioneering multi-disciplinary queer research portal within a university setting. Ings, a renowned figure in design at Auckland University of Technology, reflects on their personal journey and experiences, highlighting the challenges and prejudices faced by the queer community historically and in contemporary times. Their talk is informed by a rich personal history that includes active participation in the fight for homosexual law reform and a broad career spanning various creative and academic disciplines. Their book, "Disobedient Teaching," is noted for its influential perspectives on pedagogy and educational culture. Central to Ings' address is the concept of "invisibility" as a tool of oppression and its counteraction through visibility and storytelling. Their discussion extends to various themes, including the role of academic institutions in safeguarding knowledge and acting as society's critic and conscience. The address emphasizes the importance of diversity and the responsibility of academics to nurture and protect it. Ings also touches on issues such as the historical erasure of queer narratives, the safety concerns for queer academics and students in a global context, and the importance of community and familial support structures within the queer community. Their perspective is marked by a deep understanding of the historical and ongoing struggles for acceptance and rights, and a commitment to using their skills and position to foster positive change. This keynote offers a comprehensive overview of the evolution, challenges, and aspirations of queer research and advocacy, underscoring the crucial role of academia in these endeavors.
