 vent\n\n____________________________________________________\n\nAbstract\n
 \nThe presentation draws on research conducted by the NGO “Workshop for 
 the Academic Study of Religions” in 2021-2022 in Kyiv\, Ukraine. An ov
 erview of the research project\, including its methodology and results\, 
 will be presented. The research focuses on the combination of various indi
 vidual and collective identities (religious\, sexual\, and feminist) and e
 xplores the personal experience of modern Ukrainian believers (present or 
 former) who self-identify as feminists and/or LGBT. When they experience s
 ome kind of “identity crisis” on a personal level\, do they turn to th
 eir respective religious communities for help or do they prefer to withdra
 w from them\, knowing that religious communities do not always tolerate fe
 minists or LGBT people? What strategies do feminist and LGBT believers use
  to reconcile competing identities? Are religious communities in Ukraine o
 pen to feminist and/or LGBT believers or do they prefer to ignore and excl
 ude them? These and other issues will be discussed in the presentation\, w
 hich will also include a brief introduction on the religious and human rig
 hts situation in Ukraine.\n\nThis is the Zoom link.
