Inclusion Program

Promoting an Inclusive Environment

CYDA’s Inclusion Program is a commendable initiative that strives to create a society free from discrimination and promote equal opportunities for all, particularly focusing on the LGBTQIA+ community. The LGBTQIA+ community deserves the same social entitlements as everyone else. This includes access to:

  • Equal rights: Marriage, adoption, and protection from discrimination.
  • Social programs: Healthcare, education, and unemployment benefits.
  • Safe spaces: Places to live and work without fear of harassment or violence.
  • Government services: Documents, legal aid, and assistance accessing benefits.

Inclusion Unit’s policy accessibility program tackles this by informing LGBTQIA+ individuals of their rights and helping them navigate resources. By ensuring equal access to social entitlements, we create a more equitable society.
