Introduction Workshop series
This is an educational and interactive workshop series that provides historical knowledge about decolonial emancipation processes related to sexuality and gender identity in the Global South. The workshop series focuses on creating awareness about the history, the present, and what social changes we want to achieve as a community with regard to sexuality and gender expression. The workshops are intended to introduce participants to decolonial ideologies and theories about gender and sexual diversity.
Thursday 12 February: Gender & sexuality
Throughout history, we have seen an enormous wealth of different forms of sexuality, gender expression, and family structures around the world. Unfortunately, many traditions, cultures, and spiritual traditions have been erased, colonized, and changed to fit Christian norms and values. By taking a journey through history in the Global South, we want to share different forms of family structures, sexuality, and gender expression, so that awareness is raised and participants are inspired to embark on their own journey of self-discovery in terms of their gender and sexuality.
Thursday 19 February: Colonial systems
In the second workshop, we want to take a closer look at the current discourse on diversity in sexuality and gender identity. Which colonial structures and systems are still active and how do they influence the LGBTQI+ community, particularly the BIPOC LGBTQI+ community? How do these colonial institutional and social structures translate into our daily lives?
Thursday 26 February: Queer & Trans liberation
We want to build a Queer & Trans liberation movement, that stands in solidarity and fights against injustice. What do we need as a community to build this movement? How can we work together to change society, institutions, and policy in relation to the LGBTQIAP+ community? Come and join us in the fight against fascism.
