Active Rainbow
Application deadline: 21st January (Tuesday)
Our community member Carys is a self taught crochet designer who wants to try their hand at teaching what they learned about crochet! Some of you might have already met them during the Queer Christmas market and other previous events. We absolutely love their crocheted items and we can't wait for all the new creations together!
The yarn and some crochet needles will be provided but if you own any crochet needles please feel free to take them with you.
The project is co-funded by the Erasmus+ programme, which is administered in Latvia by Jaunatnes starptautisko programmu aģentūra. It is a small-scale partnership program, coming out of the collaboration between Active Rainbow (Latvia) and You simply can Foundation (Poland).
We are an educational platform and community of people that celebrate personal growth and inclusivity. Our platform is open, accessible, and welcomes everyone who is interested in non-formal learning, mobility opportunities, and contributing their verse to society.
Active Rainbow was founded in 2014 and started at first as a self-organized initiative. Since 2020, it is an organization in Latvia.
Our team is active in the field of youth work and in the implementation of learning programs for the past 11 years, working on a local, national, European and international level. We have established and leading a sustainable network of organizations, collectives and informal groups working with LGBTQIA+/Queer Education, and sharing mutual values for increasing the quality of inclusive, intersectional, accessible and safe youth work.
[Our Vision] We contribute to the creation of a world where diversity is welcomed and celebrated as a value.
[Our Mission] We are committed to strengthen the implementation of Human Rights and improve the quality of LGBT+ spectrum education, by offering learning opportunities for people to grow and thrive.
Our motto is - learning made simple, yet significant.
