📌Today we celebrate and support Athens Pride - Φεστιβάλ Υπερηφάνειας Αθήνας 2026! 🏳️🌈
Together with embassies 27 countries we are proud to stand in solidarity with LGBTQI+ communities in Greece. Today we celebrate equality, inclusion, and human rights. At a time when the value of inclusion is ever more apparent, and most needed, we reaffirm our shared commitment to societies where all people can live openly, safely, and with dignity.
While recognizing the progress that has been made in advancing equality, we also acknowledge that sustained effort is still required to ensure the full and equal participation of all individuals.
We reaffirm that le***an, gay, bisexual, transgender, q***r, and intersex persons are entitled to the full and equal enjoyment of all human rights and fundamental freedoms. In this spirit, we support equality before the law and freedom from discrimination in all areas of life, including social, economic, cultural, and public life.
As we join this year’s Athens Pride events and celebrations under the theme ‘It’s About You (Σε Αφορά)’, we highlight the importance of creating inclusive environments where diversity is respected, valued and protected, and where all individuals can live openly, safely, and with dignity. We invite others to stand with us in this shared commitment and to contribute to the continued building of more open, inclusive, and equitable societies.
