On 21st June 2023 the consortium launched the first transnational meeting of the ERASMUS + project Pride Network Lead (project number: 2022-1-IT01-KA220-VET-000087825). The meeting was hosted by one of the Italian partners Accademia IRSEI.
The objective of the project is to create, promote and test a new standard for the professional role of the “Pride Network Lead”, which will support the inclusion of LGBTQ+ people in the work environment and which will build openness for Diversity & Inclusion within the organizations.
During the meeting, the partners discussed the work done so far within the Work Package 2- Profile, selection rules, and implementation of Pride Network Leader.
Since the beginning of the project, the consortium has mapped good practices in the partner countries and organized Design Thinking Sessions to gather information to determine the Pride Network Leader’s professional role and selection method.
The session was useful also to consult on the next steps of the project in order to achieve its objectives and to maximize coordination among partners. In the next months, partners will develop a program that includes 5 thematic blocks of the program and a trainers’ handbook.
