🇯🇵✨ 日本將推出全國首個 LGBTQ+ 教育計劃
從職場到學校、家庭全面推行，提升大眾對性傾向與性別認同的理解。
這項計劃源自 2023 年通過的多元性別理解促進法，草案指出：LGBTQ+ 群體因公眾理解不足，日常生活仍面對困惑與壓力。
政府亦會每年公布進度，三年一檢討。對仍未承認同性婚姻的日本而言，這一步意義重大。🏳️🌈 一起期待更包容的未來。
Japan will soon be rolling out its first-ever nationwide LGBTQ+ education programs. The programs will be launched across workplaces, schools and universities, as well as in homes.
Reports from Japanese media say that the move is designed to promote broader public understanding and awareness of diversity across the country. It follows on from the Act of the Promotion of Public Understanding of the Diversity of Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity, which passed in 2023 and meant that an education plan was required.
While the final plan hasn’t been made public yet, reports state that the draft program says that LGBTQ+ people can "experience confusion, anxiety and difficulties in daily life due to insufficient public understanding."
As well as the education program itself, yearly reports on its progress, overall public understanding of issues affecting the LGBTQ+ community and related policies will also be introduced. The scheme will then be reviewed every three years.
This is a positive step for Japan, which still has not legalised same-sex marriage.
