An LGBTQIA+ Safe space

We support and work as allies to all who face oppression.

A safe space is a place where the LGBTQIA+ community can freely express themselves without fear. 

It is a space, physical or virtual, where violence, bullying or hate speech against members of the LGBTQIA+ community will not be tolerated. A safe space does not guarantee 100% safety, but is rather a place that you protect if an incident (violence, bullying or hate speech) should occur.

the Upeska Order and it's work supports and endorses the aims and activities of the European Rainbow Sangha of the
European Buddhist Union (EBU).
