Parche Dulcero

Who we are

Parche Dulcero is a Colombian community project that promotes human rights, harm reduction, collective care, and access to reliable information for LGBTQIA+ people and other communities that use psychoactive substances in recreational or sexualised contexts.

What we do

We work from a harm and risk reduction approach, pleasure-centred agency, sexual health, and community care. We want people to make informed and consensual decisions about their body, their health, and their sexuality.

Strategic lines

  • Sociocultural transformation and collective-relational work.
  • Well-being and quality of life from subjective and individual experience.
  • Political advocacy and production of tools for institutional change.

Why it exists

The lack of accessible information about sexualised substance use, health, safety, and rights for LGBTIQ+ people and sex workers still leaves major gaps in programmes, care pathways, and public policy. Parche Dulcero exists to respond to that need.

What drives this site

This site brings together educational materials, interaction matrices, and care strategies to translate complex evidence into language that is clear, useful, and applicable in real life.

Actions and processes

Peer support groups

Safer spaces to share experiences, build networks, and design care strategies.

Collective care in nightlife

Presence, accompaniment, observation, and activation of support routes to reduce risks and violence.

Community communication

Campaigns and accessible content about harm reduction, mental health, and rights.

Research and advocacy

Production of data and circulation of findings to push social and institutional change.

Team and network

Parche Dulcero brings together an interdisciplinary network with experience in community work, human rights defence, health, social research, public policy, and support for diverse populations.

It brings together community organisers, activists, social scientists, health and access-to-medicines professionals, as well as people with experience in prevention, promotion, and territorial work.
