SUMMARY:Queer Cinema in the Mountains [CALL FOR PARTICIPANTS]
DESCRIPTION:Photo: Ray Swi-hymn \nWhat is the project about?\nWith this youth exchange\, we want to bring together 28 young queer people living in Germany\, Greece\, Poland\, Austria and the Netherlands to discuss\, curate and create queer cinema. \nWe think\, we speak\, we listen\, we watch together. The stories that queer people and especially queer BIPoC see on screen are often very limited. It‘s rare that we feel represented by identities and narratives in films. This means we need to go deeper and deeper into a niche – intersectional queer cinema – that can be hard to navigate. And maybe we just need to tell our own stories and amplify our voices? \n7 days of queer empowerment in the mountains. This is why we invite you to a week of queer empowerment\, storytelling and filmmaking workshops\, curation workshops\, collective watching of (short) films by young queer filmmakers and discussions about them. We will have queer filmmakers and curators leading workshops at the project that will enable you to use film as a means to tell your own stories or as a form of community building. And we will be in the Austrian Alps\, enjoying some fresh air and possibly snow! \nNo luxury. The project will take place in simple living conditions\, rooms are shared between up to 6 people. Travel costs (up to a maximum amount\, depending on country)\, accommodation\, food and program are covered through a grant by Erasmus+. \nWhere?\nThe project will take place at a hostel in Bad Ischl in Austria. \nCosts?\n\nThere is no participation fee and the project will include accommodation\, travel costs up to 275 EUR and three free meals a day. This project is funded by the European Commission through the program Erasmus+. \nWho can apply?\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBe queer! This project is made by queer people for queer people. With this project we want to create a safer space for all of those of us who identify with being trans*\, inter*\, non-binary\, lesbian\, gay\, bisexual\, pansexual\, asexual and queer. \nPeople with multiple discriminations prioritized. We want to encourage participants who feel they can bring various perspectives and especially queer BIPOC (Black\, Indigenous\, and People of Color) to apply. We will prioritize applications by queers who experience other forms of discrimination as well (e.g. racism\, classism\, ableism). The venue is wheelchair-accessible. We will do our best to make the project a safer space and we will create the project based on the individual needs of the participants. We also really encourage people who haven’t travelled at all yet or haven’t travelled a lot yet to apply. \nMixed space: BIPOC and white. This project is organised by and for both BIPOC people (Black people\, indigenous people\, people of color) and white people. As in any mixed space like this\, it is important for white people who would like to participate to be mindful and critical of their own privileges. There will be space for critical self-reflection for white participants both in the preparation and at the project. \n2G – vaccinated or recovered. Due to the constantly changing situation around COVID-19 and due to the security of all participants\, we can only accept people who are fully vaccinated or recovered from COVID-19 to this project.. \nLiving in Austria and be between 18 and 30! We unfortunately cannot make exceptions here due to our funding. \nBe able to participate in the whole period 13–19 January 2022! It doesn’t make sense for you to come to the project late or to leave early\, as you would miss important sessions. \nA phone with a camera is great\, otherwise you don’t need to have experience or equipment at all! This is a project for people who are just interested in doing film\, not for people who are already professional filmmakers or curators. \nWho is organizing this Project?\nA new queer organisation\, Critical Queer Solidarity that wants to create alternative spaces within the queer community in Berlin and create connections with other queer people around Europe and the world.  \nQueen Of Virginity and Thomas from the Critical Queer Solidarity team will be the ones coordinating this project. \n\nHow can I apply?\nYou can apply by filling out the application form on the cqs website. \n\nQuestions?\nFeel free to write an email to Thomas at thomas@cqs.berlin

SUMMARY:Wikipedia for Peace: Queer [Edit] | 2-10 August 2022 | Vienna\, Austria
DESCRIPTION:Youth Exchange | 2-10 August 2022 | Vienna\, Austria\n \nWhat is this project about?\n \n\nThere is a representation problem on Wikipedia. Some groups are better represented than others\,. Only 17% of all biographies on English Wikipedia are about women\, a lot of content about the Global South is missing. Also queer people – Lesbians\, Gays\, Bisexuals\, Trans* and Inter* people – are underrepresented.\n\n \nA queer summer camp around learning how to edit Wikipedia.\n \n\nWe want to gather young people living in Armenia\, Austria\, France\, Spain\, Sweden and Tunisia for a summer camp in Vienna around Wikipedia. We want to edit\, translate and add content on Wikipedia around queer people\, queer concepts and queer history. And at the same time\, we want to cook together\, discuss LGBTI+ issues\, go hiking and build queer solidarity across countries and continents.\n\n \nLet‘s make Wikipedia more queer!\n \n\nThrough the articles that we write we hope to increase the visibility of LGBTI+ issues on Wikipedia in different languages and also build knowledge fundaments for international understanding and solidarity between queer people. And we want to attract more young queer people to the project to begin with!\n\n \nLogistics and financial conditions\n \n\nSimple life: The project will take place in a scouts center with simple living conditions. We will sleep in shared bedrooms. Vienna is close\, but also not. The venue is in the outskirts of Vienna. The next subway station from our venue is 25 minutes by bus\, so it is not a central location. We will have a free afternoon with the option of a city tour in the program and might make small trips to the city. Please be aware that if you want to properly explore the city\, you will need to stay a few days before or after the project.\n\n \n\nMoney\, money\, money: We can cover all essential costs of the program (including food\, travel costs up to a maximum amount per country\, visa costs\, accommodation and content) through a European project grant by Erasmus+.\n\n \n\nSustainable food: The food we provide will be vegan with vegetarian options. This is a practical decision and also a political decision because of the impact of animal agriculture on the climate and the planet. Please tell us in the application form if you have specific foods\, tolerances\, diets or allgeries that you would like to communicate.\n\n \n\nSustainable travels?: We ask you to come to this project through more sustainable means of transport rather than flying (e.g. train/bus)\, if somehow possible. We will give you more support on how you can reach the venue once you are accepted to the project.\n\n \nWho can participate?\n \n\nBe queer\, questioning or a strong ally. This project is made by LGBTQIA+ people for LGBTQIA+ people or those who are still on discovery for their sexual or/and gender identity. With this project\, we want to create a safer space for all of those of us who identify with being trans\, inter\, non-binary\, lesbian\, gay\, bisexual\, pansexual\, asexual and queer.\n\n \n\nPeople with multiple discriminations prioritized. We will prioritize applications by LGBTQIA* people who also experience other forms of discrimination (e.g. racism\, classism\, ableism). We also want to include diverse identities within the LGBTIQA+ community. We will do our best to make the project a safer space and take the individual needs of the participants into account. Unfortunately\, the accommodation is not accessible by wheelchair.\n\n \n\nNo previous experience with Wikipedia needed. The project will teach you all the basics\, if you are a newcomer. If you are already experienced with Wikipedia\, you can support others or just start editing right away.\n\n \n\nVaccinated or recovered ideally. At the moment\, there are no entrance rules around COVID-19 anymore for Austria. But due to the constantly changing situation\, this might change and then we would inform you.\n\n \n\nLiving in Armenia\, Austria\, France\, Spain\, Sweden or Tunisia and be between 18 and 30! We unfortunately cannot make exceptions due to our funding. The “group leader” from each country can also be above 30 years old.\n\n \n\nBe able to participate in the whole period 2-10 August 2022! Due to our funding\, we cannot reimburse you for your travels or other expenses if you arrive late to the project or leave early.\n\n \nHow can I apply?\n \n\nIf you live in Austria\, please apply here before 25 June 2022: https://wikimedia.at/wikipedia-for-peace-queer-edit-2022/\nIf you live in Armenia\, France\, Spain\, Sweden or Tunisia\, please write a short email to thomas.schallhart@gmx.at and we will connect you with your sending organisation.
