=== '''<big>Positive Space Initiative at ESDC</big>''' ===

<big>A Positive Space is a welcoming and respectful place for everyone—a place where people who identify as LGBTQ2+ feel safe and able to be themselves, and a place where normative assumptions are challenged and diversity is celebrated. A key element of Positive Space is training, most significantly Positive Space Ambassador training. Positive Space Ambassadors are trained volunteers who promote inclusion and raise awareness by displaying Positive Space identifiers such as pins and display cards.</big>
