On December 10-13, 2024, an employee of the national LGBT rights organization LGL Julija Baublinskaitė participated in a meeting organized by the international LGBTI youth organization IGLYO in Barcelona (Spain) to help plan an international conference on LGBTI inclusive education coming in June next year.

Julija, together with representatives of four other IGLYO member organizations from Ireland, the United Kingdom and Turkey, participated in discussions about the aims, topics, possible speakers and participants of the upcoming international conference, and the impact the conference could have on the situation of LGBTI youth in Europe and neighboring countries.

“I am very glad to have had the opportunity to participate in this meeting and share my experiences and perspectives on inclusive education for LGBTI people both in Lithuania and internationally. I hope that the new acquaintances I have made will help strengthen ties between organizations working in the field of inclusion in different countries and, in the long run, will contribute to the well-being of LGBTI people,” says Julija.
