The event is celebrated in a range of different ways, including educational workshops, film screenings, exhibitions, and other cultural events. Schools, universities, businesses, and community groups all participate in the event in different ways.
Each year, LGBT+ History Month has a different theme that focuses on a particular aspect of LGBT+ history and culture. Previous themes have included “Catalyst: 30 years of change”, “Peace, Activism and Reconciliation”, and “Geography: Mapping the world”.
