Identity disclosure and experience of discrimination of LGBT+ members of the veterinary professions in the UK: A mixed‐method approach using survey data
Our findings indicate that LGBT+ discrimination remains an issue for some veterinary professionals and students in the UK. For the profession to move towards a more equitable future, we suggest that a multifaceted approach is needed to bolster institutional support and the active promotion of equality, diversity and inclusion initiatives.
