Activities

The project was carried out in four phases:

1. Planning of workshops: A literature review and planning meetings with peers and a steering committee formed the basis for the final definition of the target groups and the fields of work as well as the development of training materials.
2. Awareness Workshops, 1st Round: Testing, evaluation and, if necessary, adaptation of the workshop design.
3. Awareness Workshops, 2nd Round: Re-testing, evaluation and finally finalization of the workshop design and appropriate exercises. The final versions have been merged into a Handbook.
4. Finalisation and dissemination of the results: Finally, the handbook and specially defined “Spotlight Exercises” for teachers to use in the classroom were disseminated among LGBTIQA+ organisations and educational institutions (online, in person and by post).

Between December 2022 and May 2024, the number of 26 workshops had been conducted and evaluated around 270 people had been informed, who in turn pass on what they have learned to their own network (family, friends). This means that at least 1,5 people per person can potentially be added who have been taught the content, so in total it can be assumed that around 600 people were reached with it.
