Our project on hate speech and intersex lives in Italy has been funded by the Independent Social Research Foundation @isrfoundation.bsky.social! I will co-lead it with Daniela Crocetti, building on Intersex Greece's 2022 study, and in partnership with IntersexEsiste. Kicking off in 2027: stay tuned.

The IDAHOT week ends, the work continues. Last Friday in Verona we brought research and community voices together on SOGIESC topics. Grateful for everyone who was in the room. 🏳️‍🌈 #SOGIESC #IDAHOT #AssociazioneItalianaPsicologia

A group of approximately fifteen people stands in two rows in front of a university lecture hall, with a projected presentation slide visible on the screen behind them. The group includes members of the SOGIESC research subgroup and organising committee of the Associazione Italiana di Psicologia, together with the community representatives who took part in the closing roundtable. Several people are wearing name badges and everyone is smiling. The setting is a tiered classroom with wooden seating.

Seven people are seated at a long table at the front of a university lecture hall, facing the audience. Name placards are visible in front of each person. Left to right: Aurelio Castro (moderator), Gabriele Piazzoni (Arcigay), Barbie Centrone (Libellula & MIT), Alessia Modica (Rete Lettera A), Chiara Isabelle Berard (Orgoglio Bisessuale), Clelia Maria Dri (ALFI), Manuela Falzone (Intersex Esiste), Marta Prandelli (moderator). Behind them, the event programme is projected on a screen showing the roundtable session "Dalla ricerca alle esperienze. Le voci dalle comunità SOGIESC" and the logos of the Associazione Italiana di Psicologia and the Università di Verona.
