Both the planet and queer individuals face oppression from the same harmful forces of heteropatriarchy. By fostering an alliance between these two movements, we aim to unite and empower our collective efforts in defeating toxic binaries, boundaries, and norms that oppress not only queer individuals but all living beings on this planet. Metamorfosis is a space of inclusivity, acceptance, and activism to delve into the intersections of queer and environmental issues.

Come join us at Can Masdeu a space for community cooperation rooted in the natural park of Collserola, where we shape habitable futures!
