The general objective of this project financed by the European Union is to combat gender violence and improve the well-being of LGBTIQ children through a comprehensive educational approach that connects educational environments with rainbow families. The CLICK project contributes to the well-being of LGBTIQ children working closely with both families with iris - understood as any family with an LGBTIQ member - and education professionals. Putting children. s interests at the centre, the project promotes active collaboration between these two types of players, who reflect beyond their own contexts.

The project is developed by adopting a child-centred perspective, where children are the protagonists of their own development. The CLICK project incorporates an intersectional approach that ensures that the interests of all LGBTIQ children are at the centre. To achieve this, diversity of identities and experiences is a constituent element of all the project. s activities. Likewise, published materials include a direct reference to the intersectional approach.

The CLICK project addresses the priorities established by the main European Union bodies and policies, the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child and the 2030 Agenda. s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
