The eight-day long international mobility for youth workers „ We are here, we are queer! Strengthening visibility and acceptance of gender and sexual diversity“ is addressed to young people working with youth in the field of education who are interested in developing their existing diversity oriented educational approaches further. Social exclusion and structural discrimination against people of queer gender and sexual identity put especially adolescents in identity building processes under pressure to adapt and conform. Many of them are not only confronted with (hetero-)sexist and/or trans*hostile discrimination but additionally with racism and other forms of discrimination. With an intersectional perspective we want to acknowledge multiple belongings, identities and discrimination and deal with the question how to counter social exclusions with the help of non-formal youth education. Especially in the face of rising right-wing extremist and populist movements and tendencies within and outside of Europe, the meaning of a diversity positive, intersectional pedagogy is becoming more important. These educational approaches can reduce prejudices, implement diversity as normality, show common grounds despite differences and counter discriminating, inhuman attitudes. Acceptance of everybody in society is for us precondition of a functioning democratic order of society.
