Celebrating Pride Month: Sourcefit’s Commitment to Inclusivity
At Sourcefit, we believe that diversity and inclusivity are the cornerstones of a vibrant and innovative community. This Pride Month, we had the privilege of hosting a virtual event, “Diverse Dialogues,” on June 27, 2024, from 3:00 PM to 4:30 PM MNL. The event was a testament to our unwavering support for the LGBTQI+ community and our commitment to fostering an inclusive environment where everyone feels valued and respected.
Event Overview: Diverse Dialogues
“Diverse Dialogues” featured an insightful session with Riyan Portuguez, popularly known as Your Millennial Psychologist. Riyan is a registered psychologist and psychometrician with a wealth of experience in mental health and LGBTQI-affirmative services. She holds a master’s degree in psychology from the Polytechnic University of the Philippines and is the CEO and founder of YMP LeaD, a startup company dedicated to providing mental health consultancy and support for the LGBTQI+ community.
During the session, Riyan shared her expertise on various topics, including the importance of mental health, the challenges faced by the LGBTQI+ community, and strategies for creating a more inclusive workplace. Her engaging presentation and thoughtful insights sparked meaningful conversations among attendees, highlighting the significance of empathy, understanding, and allyship.
