What will happen in your session?

We will explore how collaborative networks and open processes can contribute to improving Internet Health for LGBTQI+ communities.

  1. Through case studies, the facilitators present a broad picture of the status of Internet Health on LGBTQI+ rights
  2. Participants contribute to analyzing the current context of Internet Health for LGBTQI+ populations and through "creative scoring" determine together the status of Internet Health for LGBTQI+
  3. Facilitators present case studies on how stronger collaborations and open work can contribute to protecting LGBTQI+ rights in the digital context
  4. Out in the Open! Participants will craft together a roadmap to identify how / if collaborative networks, documenting evidence, and collective action can improve the Internet Health for LGBTQI+ communities

What is the goal or outcome of your session?

Out in the Open! -the session is the inception of an open collaborative network that strengthens the link between digital rights and LGBTQI+ rights. 1- Participants with diverse backgrounds, working on digital rights and LGBTQI+ rights, determine what are the needs and opportunities to collaborate effectively to improve internet health for LGBTQI+ 2- Participants are more aware of the current status of internet health for LGBTQI+ communities in diverse issues (decentralization, digital inclusion, Openness, privacy and security, and web literacy) 3- Out in the Open! becomes an ongoing space enriched by LGBTQI+ and digital rights organizations working openly to document evidence and take collective action on LGBTQI+ rights in the digital context.
