Inclusion concerns the overcoming of barriers to learning and participation for all, regardless of gender and sexual orientation. Increasingly, youth workers need to be able to implement inclusion into their daily practice. This training course “Share the Rainbow” stems from its contributors’ shared attitude towards guidance based on the values of equity, community, participation and respect for diversity. Gender-inclusion does not just involve a focus on the barriers experienced by LGBTQ+ humans but is about the development of the detail of the cultures, policies and practices in youth work and educational institutions so that they are responsive to the diversity of LGBTQ+ community and value them equally. “Share the Rainbow” was a training course focused on youth workers and their daily practise involving gender inclusiveness and support to LGBTQ+ people and the community. We fulfilled our aim to help build bridges between youth workers and participating associations so that more effective, sustainable, and accelerated change can take place. Youth workers learnt from each other and now they have a chance to improve together. Within such training, they were bringing the benefits of collaboration back to their community. Nowadays, the rights of Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender Queer and + (all other forms of sexual orientation and gender identity) are hot topics. People speak out their opinion pro or against LGBTQ+ persons and their rights. The issues are discussed by stakeholders, mass media, human rights defenders and activists. Laws are issued and unspoken rules are created. However, a social safety net for young people to create the conditions to enable LGBTQ+ youth to exercise their rights and express their identities without risk or fear fails much more than every now and then. Violence, discrimination, stigma, and criminalization negatively affect the lives of millions of LGBTQ+ people around the world and contribute to poverty. LGBTQ+ people face criminalization in approximately 70 countries – several of which can impose the death penalty – and anti-LGBTQ+ violence can be life-threatening. Access to essential services such as education and health is often denied to LGBTQ+ people. In many countries, religions, homophobia and intolerance put a strain on young people’s identity-building. Despite the extremely difficult realities LGBTQ+ people face, there are brave, smart, strategic, passionate, and resilient LGBTQ+ leaders, defenders and civil society organizations in nearly every country who work tirelessly to protect LGBTQ+ people from violence, discrimination, stigma, and criminalization. It is due to their efforts that meaningful change is possible. And it is our aim to support youth workers to become organizations who expand access to quality, equitable, and an inclusive environment for LGBTQ+ individuals. One of the underrepresented groups in European youth projects is the LGBTQ+ youth community and those questioning their sexual orientation. Even though LGBTQ+ people constitute an estimated 10% of society, most countries do not reach this percentage of youth projects that aim to include or target LGBTQ+ youth. Young people with a sexual orientation differing from the majority could unquestionably benefit from youth work activities. Youth struggling with their sexual orientation often face isolation in a hetero-dominated environment. “Share the Rainbow” provided participants with the necessary competences to include sexual orientation and gender identity (SOGI) in their youth work practice, and to combat prejudice and discriminatory attitudes towards the LGBTQ+ community. The TC took place in Rustavi, Georgia, Sep 20-27, 2022 and brought together youth workers in total from 10 different EU and EECA countries: Belgium, Georgia, Spain, Latvia, Italy, Turkey, Azerbaijan, North Macedonia, Ukraine and Hungary. Main aims and objectives were: To promote equality, solidarity and social inclusion among all, especially on the basis of gender identity and different sexual orientation; To support youth workers with knowledge and activities to improve the inclusion of LGBTQ+ youth in their organizations and provide a safe space; To facilitate intercultural learning among participants from different EU and partner countries, exchanging information on LGBTQ+ reality in different countries while building international partnership and co-operation; To strengthen the capacities of youth workers and their NGOs to actively participate in society on the debate of human rights by providing tools and activities for campaigning acceptance of diversity and equality, contributing to the development of a sense of European citizenship.
