September marks Bisexual Visibility Month, a dedicated time to recognize the contributions, experiences, and challenges of the bisexual community. This year, our campaign aims to amplify bisexual inclusivity through community engagement, fostering vital conversations that promote understanding, representation, and acceptance of bisexual individuals. The campaign has several key objectives: raising awareness about bisexual identities and the unique challenges faced by bisexual individuals; advocating for inclusive environments across workplaces, educational institutions, and social spaces; empowering bisexual voices by providing platforms for community members to share their stories; and facilitating community engagement to foster a sense of belonging and solidarity through collaborative events and initiatives.

The campaign will primarily target bisexual individuals and their allies, LGBTQ+ organizations and activists, and the general public to cultivate a better understanding of bisexuality. Key messages include affirming that bisexuality is a valid sexual orientation deserving of visibility and respect, emphasizing that true inclusivity encompasses all identities, and challenging stereotypes that contribute to misunderstandings surrounding bisexuality.

To achieve these goals, the campaign will include various components such as research and storytelling, educational workshops, a social media campaign, and resource distribution. Multimedia platforms will be created for bisexual individuals to share personal stories and challenges through video testimonials and blogs. Additionally, a survey will gather data to be translated into infographics. Educational workshops, known as Barazas, will focus on educating the community about bisexuality, biphobia, and how to be effective allies. A social media campaign will launch using the hashtag #PEMABiVisibility, inviting individuals to share their experiences and support for bisexual visibility, along with virtual discussions.

The implementation timeline includes creating promotional materials and launching the social media campaign. Weekly storytelling events and workshops during the BISEXUAL BARAZAS will allow participants to share personal stories, discuss current issues such as biphobia and representation, learn about the complexities of bisexuality, and foster community connections. A trivia night themed around Bi-Visibility will further engage and educate participants. Following the campaign, a post-campaign phase in October will focus on evaluating the impact of the initiative and gathering feedback, ensuring continued engagement through follow-up events and projects that sustain visibility efforts. This Bisexual Visibility Month campaign represents a crucial opportunity to elevate bisexual voices and create a more inclusive world. By collaborating with bisexual community members and engaging allies, we can challenge misconceptions and celebrate the rich diversity within the LGBTQ+ spectrum, inspiring lasting change and affirmation of bisexual identities so that every individual feels seen, heard, and valued.
