This resource pack was published in 2012, as part of the National Union of Students UK (NUS): Student-led dialogue on LGBT and Faith (Skills Funding Agency/LSIS EDI 3 project). The overall aim of the initiative was to support staff and learners to tackle real and perceived tensions between lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) equalities, and religion and belief equalities, in FEdefinition colleges. The project focused on dialogue as a means to increase and improve inter-personal communication between learners relating to the subject of faith and sexuality. The project provided training and offered support in running college-based activities. It also provided this resource pack of training materials and background information on the dialogue based approach for staff and learners to foster good relations and build mutually respectful relationships.

The impact of the project are being monitored through the ‘Kirkpatrick Learning Evaluation Model’. The overall impact is a medium-long term measure and was not felt within the six month timeframe of this project.
