Description
LGBTQIA+ equality is often discussed at the national level, but many of the decisions that affect our daily lives are made much closer to home. Across countries around the world, mayors, city councils and regional leaders create more inclusive communities, improve services and advance equal rights even when national governments are reluctant or negative to act.
Elected representatives discuss how local and regional political leadership can drive meaningful change for LGBTQIA+ people. Through examples, practical experiences and policy insights, the participants will share what can be achieved at the local and/or regional level and how successful initiatives can inspire elsewhere.
