PRESENTATION OF THE PROJECT EQUALITY CONNECTED DURING THE DAY OF “THE INTERSECTIONALITY IN LGBTI PUBLIC POLICIES”

On Thursday, May 3rd, the project “Equality Connected. Intersectionality in local public policies ” was presented during the day of ” Intersectionality in LGTBI public policies “. The event took place within the framework of the second meeting of the project “Intersectionality in metropolitan LGBTI policies”, promoted by the World Association of Large Metropolises in which the cities of Montevideo, Medellin, Mexico City, Berlin, Buenos Aires and Barcelona are participating.

The objective of the project, which will end in June 2019, is to produce common knowledge on how to incorporate the intersectional look within local policies for the full inclusion of LGBT people. The Barcelona meeting opened a space for reflection on the concept of intersectionality and shared experiences of applying this perspective to local LGTBI public policies.
