14 MEMBER’S QUICK REFERENCE GUIDE

Conference Goal

The goal of the summit will be to draft a declaration on LGBTQI rights that can be used in any country of the world to push for equal rights. It can serve as a tool for any human rights organization to use when pressuring their government — be they well on their way to full equality or on the contrary, working in a country where homosexuality remains illegal.

Conference Summit

The conference will be summarised in a concord approved and signed by all the participating institutions and organizations. This document will be a tool that human rights organizations can use to encourage changes at national or international institutions that have an impact on LGBT rights worldwide.

To achieve a complete and useful document the conference will have a worldwide and multidisciplinary perspective. The DNA of this challenging project will be the elements of gender, region, culture and intergenerational difference. The principle of respecting diversity will be used to find solutions to today's reality from the grass roots to high politics.

Worldwide activists will take the floor and build debate. They know best the difficulties that confront people because of their sexual identity or orientation and because of disability, race, religion or culture.
