Hello everyone, we would like to inform you that this week a charter and toolbox have been launched for a safe(r) and more inclusive nightlife in Ghent. This is the result of a collaboration between us and the nightlife council of the city of Ghent and goboomgent.
The charter contains agreements about accessibility and zero tolerance for discrimination and transgressive behavior. A number of nightlife stakeholders have already signed this and the document will be hung in these places. We hope this will spread further throughout the city and beyond so that many others will follow.
In addition, a toolbox was made that contains various materials to organize a safe(r) event and how to deal with transgressive behavior. You can order this box via the link below.
We would also like to announce that we offer a training in which all this information is presented. If you are interested in this as an event organization, youth collective, ... you can always email us for more information.
Although we are happy with the result, we would like to mention that these documents are only a start and that we attach great importance to seeing these words in practice.
In het charter staan onder meer afspraken over toegankelijkheid en een nultolerantie voor discriminatie en grensoverschrijdend gedrag.
