Lets talk about lgbtqi and inclusion to make the orienteering and sport more open for everyone! In this unique conversation queer orienteers meet representatives from orienteering organizations. How much queerness can orienteering withhold? How can and will we face the future for trans and non-binary people? How can we create change within a sport that doesn’t see the problem? How can we within orienteering be better at including the LGBTQI-community? We will highlight challenges, opportunities for the future and changes that can make a difference in forest sports. 👉🏳️🌈 Tyna Fritschy (SUI) Former world-class orienteer and World Champion medalist.
