Stand Up Awareness Week

This event has ended

Nationwide, Monday 6th November - Friday 10th November

Stand Up Awareness Week will take place from November 6-10, 2023. Belong To’s Stand Up Awareness Week is a time for post-primary schools, youth services and Youthreach centres in Ireland to join us and take a stand against homophobic, biphobic and transphobic bullying.

This week is an opportunity to take steps to make spaces safe and supportive for LGBTQ+ young people. We will equip you with the resources, tools and knowledge needed to host Stand Up Awareness Week in your school, youth service or Youthreach this November.

It is heartbreaking that one in five young LGBTQ+ people face bullying and that 76% of LGBTQ+ students feel unsafe at school. Together we can create spaces where LGBTQ+ young people feel safe, equal and valued.
