A Sociopolitical Study of LGBTQ+ Experiences in the US & Brazil

The purpose of this course is to allow students to examine structural stigma from the context of Brazil- with direct interaction with LGBTQ youth, adults, social service providers and policy advocates to help students understand the ways in which structural stigma influences individual behavioral health patterns which can be applied in the U.S. and in a global context. This course will travel to Brazil over spring break (March 8-15, 2025) and introduce students to understanding LGBTQ human rights and policy issues from an international perspective, with a strong focus on intersectional experiences of race, ethnicity, gender and sexuality. South America is undergoing a major cultural shift in the areas of gender related issues and sexual identity, moving from a conservative, male heterosexual dominated culture to a more open, liberal, and gender equal society. Several South American countries, such as Brazil, have been the unexpected global leaders in the advancement of the personal and political rights of their LGBTQ and ally citizens. Through exposure to other cultures and intensive discussion on LGBTQ international experiences displayed throughout this course, students will improve their awareness and understanding of the political, economic, social, and cultural contexts through an LGBTQ developmental experience lens, using Brazil as a point of study. Students must apply for the course at sa.wustl.edu by November 1, 2024. There is a $1800 course fee for Brown School students. This will cover airfare, housing, in country transportation, breakfast, insurance. Students are responsible for all costs not covered by the course fee, including travel to the airport, additional meals, personal expenses, and visa or immunizations. Travel: March 8-15, 2025.
