Regarding arts and culture, we promote LGBT rights through social media with our weekly Rainbow news, Rainbow magazine and annual Wathann story competition. Moreover, we also organize annual film-making workshops for young LGBT people, in collaboration with the &amp;PROUD LGBT film festival. Participants receive training and support to produce documentary films to raise public understanding of LGBT people. We aim to change the harmful stereotypes portrayed by Myanmar media and entertainment industry due to lack of LGBT and SOGIE knowledge, and to provide a platform for LGBT film-makers in the film industry,\u201d said Shin Thant, the Community Outreach Coordinator of Colors Rainbow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\"
