Coming Out Week 2014

October 6, 2014

The Human RightS Initiative (HRSI) in collaboration with the CEU LGBTIQ Club is organizing this year’s Coming Out Week October 6-10. Taking into account specific politics behind the
concept of “coming out” and the international context of CEU, HRSI aims to celebrate and raise awareness of forms of gender dissent and sexual emancipation either rooted in the culture of global North or global South.
