Our Projects
Unveiling Identity: A LGBTQ+ Perspective
Discover the vibrant mosaic of stories, challenges, and triumphs within the LGBTQ+ community. 'Unveiling Identities' is a collection of compelling articles that explores the diverse and multifaceted experiences of LGBTQ+ individuals. From personal journeys of self-discovery to the wider societal challenges they face, this collection showcases the resilience, courage, and power of LGBTQ+ voices. Join us in celebrating the rich tapestry of identities and stories that continue to shape our world.
Pride in the City
Our Pride in the City project documents the vibrant and diverse LGBTQ+ communities in cities around the world. Through photography, audio, and infographics, we showcase the unique cultures and experiences of queer individuals in urban settings.
Diversity in Devotion
Historically, organized religions have often maintained a negative and unwelcoming stance toward the LGBTQ+ community, using actions and holy texts to marginalize and stigmatize queer individuals. The consequences for LGBTQ+ people have ranged from exclusion to even violence committed in the name of faith. Yet, in the face of these challenges, queer individuals persist in reimagining religious teachings and boundaries to create spaces where their identities can coexist and flourish.
