The founders of the project about the initiative:
“Living in Mogilev for an LGBTQ+ person is another challenge, and engaging in activism is an even greater challenge. But it is very important for us to raise the problems of homophobia, biphobia, transphobia, sexism and other human rights violations, environmental problems. We are tired of hearing that Mogilev is the homophobic capital of Belarus, although we ourselves joke like that. Yes, in a sense, this city is, but Mogilev is also very beautiful with very empathic places and people. LGBTQ+ people live in Mogilev, just like anywhere else in the world , and it is with the stories of LGBTQ+ people from Mogilev that we would like to introduce you through our project MOGILOVE".
