This one-day seminar is an important opportunity for educators, pastoral workers, community leaders, and all interested individuals to engage in a mature, compassionate, and informed dialogue on LGBTIQ+ realities.

We aim to move beyond simplified narratives and encourage a deep, constructive reflection on these themes within a context that values human dignity, welcome, and hope. Drawing inspiration from the vision of Don Bosco, the seminar focuses on practical ways to foster inclusive communities that truly accompany every person.

The day is expertly guided by Fr. Kevin Schembri, who will provide essential theological and pastoral perspectives to ground our conversations. Through a blend of dedicated input sessions, facilitated small-group work, and a plenary discussion, participants will have the opportunity to connect these critical contemporary issues with established values of faith, service, and community building.
