Various Voices 2023 - Italy Tour |
|
|
In the days leading up to the festival (12-13 June 2022) you will have the opportunity to sing in one of the most beautiful cities in Italy hosted by an Italian rainbow choir. In order to join the VVIT it is necessary to express this will during the choir registration phase by indicating a scale of preferences from the most desired to the least desired city. The Various Voices team together with Cromatica (National Association of Italian Rainbow Choirs) will coordinate everything in the best possible way in consideration of the limited places offered. See details on the Various Voices Italy Tour destination in the dedicated section. |

Only a week left before two full months of war in Ukraine. From the first days, the European LGBTQI community has come together to help our Ukrainian friends. Our collaboration with the Громадська організація "Ти не один" NGO " You Are Not Alone" from Zhytomyr was especially productive. It is this organisation that has undertaken serious and responsible work, being in constant danger of life, to keep in touch with representatives of the Ukrainian community in the most terrible circumstances. #StandwithUkraine #humanrights #lgbtiq #ukraine |

HELP Ukraine | LEGATO ChoirsOur friends are in need. There is a lack of everything! LGBTIQ* organisations are now building shelters where lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans*, inter*, and queer people can find accommodation when they need protection, food, and medical care. |
