Mi June 13, 4 p.m.: HIV in Chile  (Room C1)
The worrying figure of the rise in HIV cases in Chile makes it necessary to analyze the history and the current context of this epidemic that places our country among the first places in the world. For this we will talk with government entities and representatives of civil society, such as the NGO Redoss and Amnesty International, about the urgent actions to be taken, the effectiveness of the campaigns, sexual education in schools and the public health challenge that we face as a Chilean society.

Thu June 14, 4 p.m.: LGTB+ literature and cinema  (Room C2)
Historically, artistic expressions have been a reflection of society and have contributed to education on various topics. Currently, in our country, literary and film production around LGBT+ has been increasing and more and more artists are interested in exploring, from a personal or non-personal point of view, this topic. Moderated by the writer and director Alberto Fuguet, conversation with Pepa San Martín (Rara), Camila Gutiérrez (Young and Crazy), Gonzalo Asalazar (El Desiero Invisible), and Pablo Fernández Rojas (Piquero).

Fri June 15, 12 noon: Gender Identity Law  (Room C2)
Conversation with government and civil society entities, represented by Organizing Trans Diversities (OTD), Fundación Selena and Amnesty International, regarding the processing of a Gender Identity Law that includes transsexual children, their historical struggle to be recognized in Chile and to be accepted in a society that still discriminates against them.

Fri June 15, 4 p.m.: Drag scene in Chile (Room C2)
During recent years, the LGBT+ bohemia in our country has experienced an increase in the supply of places that offer drag, drag-queen and drag-king shows. Thus, a scene of artists who awaken the interest of new generations in this historical and characteristic culture of our community has become increasingly popular and consolidated. We will talk with representatives of the current local scene about this artistic and discursive expression, and its social and political scope. Moderated by Nicolás Videla|Amnesia, the participants are Rocío Rodríguez|Roxy Foxy, Pancho Calvacho|Guadalupe, Bastián Pérez|Anna Balmánica, Francisca Mollo|Deep Blue King, and Raúl Fernández|LemonLab.
