Qiuyan Chen

What’s the situation for LGBTQ+ people in China? How do queer Chinese rethink their intersectional identities, especially during the pandemic in the UK? How can the community mobilise to promote cross-cultural connections?

Qiuyan Chen is a passionate LGBTQ+ activist and artist. Born and raised in Mainland China, Qiuyan came to UK in 2018 and is now a London School of Economics (LSE) Gender Alumni and co-curated the 2021 Queer Chinese Community Art Festival. She initiated campaigns in China which called for equality: ‘Say No to Homophobic Textbooks’ and ‘All Teachers out for LGBTQ+’.
