This year, we&#039;re trying to celebrate it in a different way, getting closer to each person&#039;s daily lives and trying to put ourselves in their shoes*.<br \/>\nComing out is a delicate moment, both on a relational and personal level, and above all it recurs continuously in different situations: at home, in the extended family context (relatives and grandparents, etc.), at school, among friends, during sports, at the gym.<\/p>\n<p>This is why the #HoQualcosaDaDirvi campaign does not limit itself to describing a single episode of outburst, but delicately recounts the same outburst but made in different contexts.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>How does the #HoQualcosaDaDirvi campaign work?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>We&#039;ve imagined and brought to life through videos, posters, flyers, and social media postcards, coming out at home, at school, with friends, and during sports activities. The posters feature a QR code that anyone passing by can scan with their smartphone and instantly access the entire video gallery.<\/p>\n<h3>How can you actively participate?<\/h3>\n<p>Anyone who wants can shoot a video to post on social media, with the hashtag <em><strong>#HoSomethingToTellYou,<\/strong><\/em> A place where you can come out, share your experience, imagine what you&#039;d like it to be like, or even suggest another category of situations in which communicating your sexual identity or orientation is both important and sensitive. In this campaign, coming out is understood both as a revelation of your sexual orientation or identity and as an expression of something that has remained hidden for too long, which, when shared, gives us a sense of liberation.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/videoseries?list=PLqBT7a-iTLgHYn5EoC0Coa1lEXWSQszo2\" width=\"853\" height=\"480\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Without fear, without dread, let us let those who have something to hide stay in the shadows, free to be, free to say who we are!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h3>Download the 2017 campaign materials!<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/open?id=0B1J0RPrvhWpuZlFkZTZNemR2cFk\">Facebook cover<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/open?id=0B1J0RPrvhWpuckNwVXhQelJHOGs\">Posters and flyers<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.arcigay.it\/en\/comingoutday\/cambia-immagine-profilo-facebook\/\">Set a theme for your Facebook profile photo<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>\u2026 and then?<\/h3>\n<p>The campaign isn&#039;t just virtual; the material has been printed and sent to all Arcigay committees, as well as posted on posters in 28 Italian cities: a concrete way to show our support to all LGBT people who, in small or large towns across our country, sometimes don&#039;t find the strength or courage to come out.<br \/>\nYou can find us with billboards in Turin, Verbania, Cuneo, Varese, Pavia, Vicenza, Trento, Ravenna, Cervia, Faenza, Pisa, Siena, Arezzo, Latina, Caserta, Salerno, Torre Annunziata, Naples, Verona, Bologna, Barletta, Andria, Trani, Lecce, Potenza, Pesaro, Chieti, Pescara!<\/p>\n<h3>Project supported with eight per thousand funds from the Waldensian Church (Union of Methodist and Waldensian Churches).<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-49060 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.arcigay.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/8xmille_ri-bozza_1-05-600x424.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"212\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.arcigay.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/8xmille_ri-bozza_1-05-600x424.png 600w, https:\/\/www.arcigay.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/8xmille_ri-bozza_1-05-768x543.png 768w, https:\/\/www.arcigay.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/8xmille_ri-bozza_1-05-150x106.png 150w, https:\/\/www.arcigay.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/8xmille_ri-bozza_1-05-1200x849.png 1200w, https:\/\/www.arcigay.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/8xmille_ri-bozza_1-05-891x630.png 891w, https:\/\/www.arcigay.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/8xmille_ri-bozza_1-05-445x315.png 445w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; #HoQualcosaDaDirvi L\u201911 ottobre \u00e8 la giornata nazionale dedicata al Coming Out, un\u2019occasione in cui celebrare le identit\u00e0 di tutti e tutte.
