RIOT was born in order to analyze and know better the LGBT * universe, by mapping the situation in different countries of the world, by sharing useful methods and techniques, by fighting discrimination and stereotypes, by using the spirit of active citizenship to claim the recognition of LGBT+ rights in all the EU countries, by stimulating more awareness on the best practices of activism. The project was developed by SEYF within the frame of KA105 action of the Erasmus+ Programme and involved organizations from Italy, Malta, Romania, Slovenia, Greece, Ireland, Bulgaria and Spain. The project was based on the fundamental EU value to "combat social exclusion and discrimination, and shall promote social justice and protection, equality between women and men, solidarity between generations and protection of the rights of the child." (art. 3 of the Treaty on EU). The project objectives were: - to promote European and democratic values, active citizenship, non-formal education and human rights for fighting prejudices and all the attitudes legitimating exclusion and marginalization; - to promote the knowledge of human rights by defending the juridical recognition of the members of the LGBT+ community; - to promote more awareness to LGBT+ issue and to map stereotypes and ideologies on sexual orientation and gender issues; - to address the problem of prejudices related to sexual orientation in different geo/social contexts; - to professionalize Youth Workers on LGBT+ issues and non-formal methodologies for approaching the topic; - to provide the necessary tools for creating a social media campaign on LGBT+ rights realized with creativity; - to provide useful tools for young people to identify, raise awareness and report different types of discrimination on sexual orientation and gener issues within their local communities; - to explore the concepts of xenophobia, homotransphobia and general discrimination; - to explore at grassroots level the causes of homotransphobia; - to examine the current situation and the risks that young people may face today, in particular the young LGBT+ people; - to explore common European values of tolerance, pluralism, non-discrimination, justice, solidarity and democracy and how young citizens could embrace and promote them in their local communities; - to explore the tools used to spread the homotransphobia on social media/network, by creating activities useful to change the current situation; - to share a common plan, based up the observation of each local community, so to seek and find useful tools and strategies to fight discrimination and homotransphobia.
