About the project

Liguria Pride 2019

📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

In addition to its regular activities during the year related to the promotion of gender and LGBT+ rights (such as theater, discussions, workshops in school etc.), Liguria Pride committee organizes an annual regional Pride. The volunteers will have the chance to be actively involved in the logistics and the organization of the Liguria Pride 2019 through participating in the preparation of workshops and other activities dedicated to promote gender education in Genoa and to raise awareness among the local community by sharing international realities and personal experiences. The workcamp venue is Giardini Luzzati, a social center with a bar and a restaurant, located on a public square in the historical center of Genoa.

💼 What the programme involves

The volunteers will have a short training on gender education and social media management. After that, their main work will be related to logistical support and social media promotion of the Pride. In the week before the parade the volunteers will support its planning and promotion, while contributing to the organization of workshops and taking part in the pride village activities ( debates, activities with children, tour of LGBT+ arts in Genoa, etc.). The work will be mostly in the afternoons and the evenings. Due to the numerous activities concentrated during the Pride village week, the free days of the volunteers will be at the beginning and at the end of the workcamp. The most intense day will be the 15th of June - the day of the parade.

🏠 Accommodation on site

The accommodation will be in the historical center of Genoa and the conditions will be very basic – the volunteers will sleep in a big gender mixed room and they have to bring their own sleeping bag and a camping mattress. There will be two bathrooms (the disponibility of showers is yet to be confirmed). Towels are not provided. All the meals, except breakfast, will take place at the restaurant of the village. The food will be vegan. Free wifi is available in some parts of the city and the village, but not in the accommodation.
