Paris97
Conference
First European Conference
of Lesbian and Gay Socialist Groups

June 27, 1997

During Europride Week, Homosexualites et Socialisme is organizing a conference which will be held in Paris and to which all European Lesbian and Gay Socialist groups are invited.

All over Europe there are specifically lesbian and gay socialist groups as well as gays and lesbians who are active within socialist parties. There is little communication between these groups, however, and no coordination for joint intervention at European level. Moreover, socialist gay groups are unaware of the political situation of their colleagues abroad and how they operate in their own country.

The four main aims of this conference are:

Representatives are invited to give a fifteen-minute talk to introduce their own groups and plans. Workshops will provide the opportunity for discussion of important issues in depth, such as joint European activity. Time will of course be allowed for discussion on any other theme. We would like to welcome as many people as possible, so our timetable will take your requests into account.

As this is the very first conference of its kind, we do not have a very precise idea of how we will set up future relations between our groups, so this question will be one of the major issues in our discussion.

Finally, in order to publish the proceedings of this conference, we would be very grateful if you could provide us with a copy, preferably on disquette, of your talk.

Please get in touch with us by mail or e-mail. We will mail you the subscription form as soon as possible.

We very much look forward to seeing you in Paris. HES
