The IDAHOBIT week, International Day Against Homophobia Transphobia and Biphobia, celebrated on 17 May, represents an important moment for reflection on LGBTQI+ policies, their progress and the most urgent challenges to overcome. Particularly at a historical time like the present day, when the rights of the most vulnerable communities are being threatened by the ultra-conservative policies of the extreme-right in power, building and consolidating community ties takes on a strategic significance for collective resistance.
We recognise the growing need to create opportunities to establish dialogues between the various environments where pride policies are debated, expanded and promoted. To this end, at the second meeting of the seminar series “Between the letters: conversations about bisexualities and plurisexualities”, we have invited experts in bisexual studies and politics from the Brazilian and Spanish contexts to explore issues relating to bisexualities from a transnational perspective.
