6 months - (June 2023 - December 2023)
Partners:
Queer Varna
Financed by:
Active Citizens Fund-national And Active Citizens Fund-regional

About the project:

The project involves joint meetings between the 2 partners, during which we will work together on creating a Polish-Bulgarian partnership. As part of the activities, an educational platform will be created on which we will post downloadable materials that can be used to work with and for LGBTQIA+ people. Our joint webinars and popular science articles will also be posted on the platform.

 

The project also involves a 5-day study visit at the Rainbow Hub, conducted by the Bilitis Foundation for the Institute for Prevention of Exclusions. During the visit, people working at the Institute for Prevention of Exclusion will acquire competences from a more experienced organization and gain tools thanks to which the foundation will be able to better act for LGBTQIA+ people in Toruń and the country.

The project includes a one-day workshop for the Sofia community of non-heteronormative people associated with Rainbow Hub and Bilitis Foundation. 

Project objectives and activities:

  • – The main goal is to establish cooperation between the 2 partners in the field of activities for non-heteronormative people and counteract the discrimination they experience by creating educational activities.
  • – The aim is also to exchange knowledge and experience between organizations and to implement new methods of management and work organization developed during the study visit.
