Come one, come all and spend some time at Geneva's first official Semaine contre l'Homophobie! This is a full week of events, taking place from May 12-20th, right here in Geneva! There's an event for everyone, from film screenings to dance parties to theme dinners, and much much more.

The week is built around Thursday, May 17, which is IDAHO, the International Day Against Homophobia. This day is a holiday in Geneva (Ascension), so there are activities throughout the day.

All events are at Dialogai unless otherwise specified. Dialogai is at rue de la Navigation 11 in the Pâquis.

All dinners feature the cuisines of homophobic countries. To reserve a place for a meal, email [email protected] by May 14. Check out menus for each of the dinners: http://www.dialogai.org/article.php?sid=1802

Kiss Competition: Send your photos of two people of the same sex kissing in public and unexpected places, and send them in before May 30: [email protected]

The Week Against Homophobia is organized by all of Geneva's LGBT groups. Dialogai leads the charge, with collaboration from Lestime, 260, La Terrasse, Think Out, K36, FGAL, Le Phare, l'Aiglon, Livresse, Pink Party Geneva, and others - as well as your very own Got Milk.

IMPORTANT: This event lasts a FULL WEEK, but Glocals does not allow for events that are more than one night. Do not feel obliged to attend all events if you RSVP - just come to what you'd like! Got Milk organizers will be at many, if not all the events of this week, and there will be many friendly faces waiting to welcome you.
