The aim of the project Rainbow Connection II, is to make a follow up of the youth exchange Rainbow Connection which was made in Mölndal in June 2015. The target group is LGBTQ- young people (Lesbian, Gay, Trans, Queer) aged 15-23 years old from Sweden, Israel, France and Slovakia. 8 young people + 2 leaders from each countries will take part.Our objective is to strengthen our LGBTQ network with the partner organisations and their young people. We aim to continue the work to share knowledge, culture and experiences with each other within LGBTQ issues. We will use non-formal learning methods, group building games, study visits and peer learning. We aim to create goals for each country on how to improve LGBTQ situation and in the exchange talk about the progress and the results, make common goals and manifesto and decide on deadlines for activities. Ie; Creating more activism, protest, getting more media attention by protesting at the same time, share ideas about different topics, how to increase acceptance and understanding of parents with LGBTQ-children. Refusing being static, being silent! The envisaged impact of this project will be to strengthen the group and the individual and create more visibility to the LGBTQ-issue in order to gain more acceptance in the society in the different countries. The potential longer term benefits of continued partnership over the years is that WE can do something bigger, something that will STAY here after we leave, something that will say we were HERE!
