\u201dCampus Pride – Communitary Advocacy Campaigns for Safe Universities\u201d <\/b>is a project with roots in the international community and that has started its activity since 2015. Campus Pride is the first initiative in Romania that aims at creating a safe and welcoming environment and an accepting climate for all of the students from the Romanian university environment, no matter the sexual orientation or gender identity. The project, dedicated and created by the LGBT (lesbians, gay, bisexuals, and trans) students in Bucharest created the first safe space in which they were able to get informed, to socialize, and to develop leadership skills, all in the context of a deeply homophobic reality.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Starting with October 2021, we opened three student centers in Bucharest, Cluj, and Timi\u0219oara, where the LGBT youth and allies could regularly meet to share their experiences, to take part in various community building activities and to support each other.<\/span><\/p>\n

Between 2015 – 2016 <\/b>, the project engaged the LGBT students in organizing three key events: LGBT Allies Week – a series of social events (forum theater storytelling, debates, quiz night, karaoke, living library, party, board games, treasure hunt, movie night etc.); LGBT History Month – workshop, laser tag; Pride Week – banners workshop, PhotoVoice exhibition, Diversity March. Other events that had been organized during that year include: an event on the “Transgender Day of Remembrance”, an event on the Asexual Visibility Day, the Queer Prom “How Queers Stole Christmas”.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

In 2017<\/b> Campus Pride organized social gatherings (parties, brunches, movie nights) and workshops (on sexual education, and on the intervention in cases of violent incidents of all forms). <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

In 2018,<\/b> the LGBT students<\/span> organized themselves to put together a party at Macaz, the “Brave To Be Me”<\/span> exhibition, with snapshots of the LGBT students\u2019 lives, and in collaboration with<\/span> IBM Rom\u00e2nia,<\/span> they organized two personal<\/span> trainings<\/span> within the Faculty of<\/span> Sociology, and the SNSPA. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

After a pause of three years, the project was reinstated in 2021.<\/b> During this year, the project commenced multiple actions and events in Bucharest, Cluj, and Timi\u0219oara, but also online, such as:<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
