The goal of the activity was to have a tandem aperitif with Ottavo Colore members, a LGBTQ+ association based in Parma.
We organized a tandem aperitivo bringing together our Erasmus students and the members of Ottavo Colore, an LGBTQ+ association based in Parma. The event created a welcoming and inclusive space where participants could meet, talk, and exchange perspectives in an informal and friendly setting.
Throughout the evening, Erasmus students had the opportunity to engage directly with the association’s volunteers, who shared insights about LGBTQ+ life, rights, and challenges in Italy. To encourage interaction, we proposed a series of ice-breaking activities and discussion prompts designed to foster dialogue, promote cultural exchange, and raise awareness about LGBTQ+ issues in the Italian context.
The tandem aperitivo offered a meaningful moment of connection, allowing international students to better understand local realities while building new relationships within Parma’s community
