The creation of a Drag persona allows the person to confront this harsh reality and to fight or overcome it with Art, Creativity and Humor. It also has another effect, it supports the build up of tools to boost confidence and soft skills that the young people might not feel in their usual ‘self’ but that they are able to channel and transfer or learn from their Drag persona to their daily ‘self’. This Youth exchange aimed to explore Gender Expression as a form of art, but also as a form of activism that allows to challenge the Gender spectrum but also other unfair situations faced by the Gender gap and the many glass ceilings that women and minorities face on daily basis. The Dragtivism project had several key objectives: 1. To explore gender from different perspectives, including the national realities that participants bring. 2. Specifically examine the experiences of young LGBTI+ people and consider a range of different approaches and actions to build resilience and increase inclusion. 3. Consider practices to challenge hate speech among young people, address prejudice and counter discrimination through art and activism. 4. Explore our possible "alter-egos" and how they can be allies for self-development. 5. Learn some skills around the art of drag which may also support some future employment possibilities. 6. Explore and celebrate LGBTI+ culture. 7. Provide a space for research and personal growth of participants. 8. Increase awareness and acceptance of LGBTI+ people across the European Union. 9. To achieve citizenship, to promote diversity and non-discrimination. 10. Use the Erasmus+ programme as a tool to carry out projects promoting LGBTI+ rights, human rights and equality. These goals were designed to help young people explore their identity, learn new skills and challenge prejudice and discrimination. And to create greater awareness and acceptance of LGBTI+ people across the European Union and promote diversity and non-discrimination.
