4 day seminar with focus on identity and health
Due to the complexities of living in a globalised world, which can be particularly challenging and isolating for our community, Queer World has decided to organise a comprehensive four-day seminar focusing on identity and health. Through this seminar, we want to provide participants with informative workshops, tools and knowledge to navigate life more effectively. The programme will include short presentations from relevant organisations in the field, group exercises and individual work.
Main objective: Create a safe space for participants
Our main goal is to create a safe space where participants feel comfortable discussing openly about sexual health, substance use and the challenges they face in these areas.
Sub-goal: community building among our members
The seminar provides an opportunity for community building among our members from all over Norway, allowing them to connect with other queer individuals with minority backgrounds.
Themes in the seminar
Throughout the seminar, we will delve into various topics including how to foster healthy relationships, create intimacy and ensure safer practices in love and sex. We will also explore the dynamics of open relationships versus monogamy and discuss strategies for navigating dating apps such as Grindr. Furthermore, we will address the importance of establishing a weekly self-care routine and examine why individuals in our society may be more vulnerable to substance use. In addition, we will provide guidance on how to support a partner struggling with addiction.
