How does the pushback on the LGBTQI+ movement appear? How can we support the fight to equal rights? Is Iceland a queer paradise? How can we adopt a gender neutral language? What is beautiful about queerness? What challenges do queer parents face? Svandís and Bjarni discuss these questions and more, and viewers can also submit questions during the event, by posting a comment to the event on Facebook.

This event is organised by the Forum of Equality Officers at the Icelandic universities.You can order sign language interpretation for Gender Equality Days events by e-mailing to adstodarmenn@hi.is.
