On 25–27 June 2025, the international “Proud Pupils” conference took place in Barcelona, focusing on LGBTQI inclusion in education. The event brought together representatives of youth, human rights, and educational organizations from across Europe. LGL was represented by Communications Manager Eglė Kuktoraitė, who contributed to discussions on creating safe and supportive environments for LGBTQI students.

The conference featured best practice examples, research findings, and tools to combat discrimination in schools. LGL shared its experience from educational projects implemented in Lithuania.

Participation in “Proud Pupils” once again highlighted the importance of promoting inclusion in education through both political action and the active engagement of civil society organizations.
