Keeping this 2021-year Summit’s vision of disruptions and reconstructions, Francisco will engage in a philosophical rumination on the principles that guide queer-initiated research and education, and seem to guide our lived experience and sense of future. These reflections are based on three decades of teaching, living with HIV, and collaborating in research in Canada. Instead of looking at what we want and need, Francisco asks us to first look at what we have at the seemingly outset of one more global pandemic. He asks us to reflect on what we can do with what we have.
