A rainbow consists of many different colours, as does the diversity amongst lesbian, gay and bisexual youth. Surely you find sparkles of this rainbow in your youth organisation as well. This booklet is about how to work with LesBiGay youth in a respectful and helpful way.
Furthermore, Over the Rainbow is a booklet about how to set up international youth projects that involve LesBiGay youth. International projects can be very beneficial not only for young people's personal development, but also for creating a more accepting society of this invisible (hiding?) minority that is LesBiGay youth.
Over the Rainbow is a practical booklet with a range of questions and answers that can help you take the jump from national to international youth projects. It includes information on finding partner organisations, project funding and tips and tricks on how to deal with specific LesBiGay issues that arise on a project abroad. And if you don't find what you are looking for in this booklet, perhaps one of the links or references surely will get you on the right track.
This booklet is part of the SALTO 'Inclusion for ALL' series. Check out the complete series at www.salto-youth.net/InclusionForALL/.
