Sexual Orientation

  • EuropeanEqual International Stand Up to Bullying Day in Greece 

              In November, the Erasmus Team of Naoussa worked for the International Day against discriminations due to sex and/or sexual orientation. Through a common paper, the team shared information and knowledge on the subject, was sensitized and came to conclusions and future behaviours appropriate for people that respect equality and defend the right to being different. Several ideas were developped on how to communicate the subject to the rest of the students, such as through posters, video-comics etc

    International Stand up to bullying Day

    at ICS D'Alessandro-Vocino

    In order to raise awareness about this matter, the Italian students have had lessons in different subjects to deal with bullying against weaker people, just because they are different for the colour of the skin, their size or their sexual orientation. They have read the ebook “Trans cuore” that is about a mum who was born in a male body then when she grew up she decided to follow her real nature and become a woman and a mum adopting tow babies. The students have learned that “ it's right that everyone feels himself. Being yourself is a beautiful thing because it makes you free and brave, you don't even have to lie to others. The way of being of other people must be respected”. (Mariano Gianola)

     

     

    Raising awareness about Sexual Identity in Spain

    During last month third year pupils have been taking part in a workshop to raise awareness about one of our project themes: Sexual Identity. The workshop has been delivered by the Spanish Romani Women Association Kamira and it has used many resources such us: word clouds, motivational videos, debates and open questions. Pupils have enjoyed this workshop and they feel it has helped them to develop more tolerant attitudes towards LGBTIQ people. Coinciding with the international stand up to bullying game, pupils have also used the Twinboard created by Italian pupils in order to interact opinion and different images and news in relation to this theme.
