2012 PrideRadar

Report by InterPride‘s Human Rights Committee 2012 Pride Radar

InterPride Inc. – International Association of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Intersex Pride Organizers Founded in 1982 InterPride is the worlds largest organization for organizers of Pride events. InterPride is incorporated in the State of Texas in the USA and is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization under US law. It is funded by membership dues, sponsorship, merchandise sales and donations from individuals and organizations.

Our mission It’s InterPride’s mission to promote Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans- gender and Intersex (LGBTI) Pride on an international level and to encourage diverse communities to hold and attend Pride Events. InterPride increases networking, communication and education among Pride Organizations. InterPride works together with other LGBTI and Human Rights organizations.

International LGBTI Human Rights InterPride believes that all people are born free and equal with dignity and rights. InterPride supports the Yogyakarta Principles, a set of principles applying international human rights law to ensure protection against the violations experienced by lesbians, gay men, bisexual, transgender and intersex people. Around the world, there remain many incidents where an individual’s sexual orientation or gender identity can lead them to face discrimination, violence, imprisonment, torture or execution.

InterPride and Human Rights InterPride raises attention and educates people about the exist- ing difficulties around the world through our member Pride events. We encourage our members to include a Human Rights element in their Pride festivities expressly for the purpose of sharing the plight of others. We participate in Human Rights con- ferences and partner with other LGBTI organizations around the www.interpride.org world to promote safety, equality and tolerance for all people everywhere. Through our members, partners, colleagues and © March 20, 2012 InterPride Inc. communities, InterPride reaches millions of people around the Information given in this Report is known to be correct at the world. time of publication.

It’s InterPride’s mission to promote Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans- gender and Intersex (LGBTI) Pride on an international level and to encourage diverse communities to hold and attend Pride events. From large festivals in excess of a million people, to small activist marches and gatherings, the spectrum of events our members organize is diverse - not all happening in peaceful environments however.

This year InterPride is celebrating its 30th Anniversary and to mark this occasion we have produced this inaugural PrideRadar. The intention of this publication is to collect all information about Pride events around the world and to monitor the “climate” in which they are taking place. Are they so-called Happy Prides or are they being held in hostile environments? We want to create awareness in the wider community about how large OUR community, OUR friends and OUR supporters are and how seriously OUR rights should be taken.

Although not all events happening may be listed we believe the PrideRadar is a good start. If you know of Pride events (or are a Pride organizer) that are not listed let us know and we’ll make sure that you are added to the list. It’s our goal to have a more Let’s take a closer look. comprehensive and updated publication by next year.

It all started in the late sixties/early seventies in the United States Pride events are an integral part of our socio-cultural fabric – of America when gay and lesbian citizens, in the wake of the meaning and colorful in every conceivable fashion – and an civil rights movement, started to protest against discrimination. asset to every society. We hope that the future will see Pride In remembrance of the beginnings, marches of Pride evolved in events happening in all countries around the world without big cities in the USA sparking a plethora of similar events around incident or government intervention. the world. Mark Frederick Chapman Caryl Dolinko We have come a long way since those early days of our move- Co-President Co-President ment. In many cities around the world, Prides have become celebratory events establishing themselves as regular dates in InterPride Inc. the city’s calendar and generating the support of the local population, government, businesses and the promotion of their Tourist boards. Although this is true of most Western countries, sadly in many other countries Pride marches or other forms of manifestations for equal rights and anti-discrimination of LGBTI people are still obstructed, attacked or simply forbidden.

“First they ignore you. Then they ridicule you. Then they fight you. Then you win.” Mahatma Gandhi

growing interest in Pride activism throughout Eastern Europe stemming from the collapse of totalitarian regimes in the latter part of the previous century despite ongoing cultural chal- lenges. However, throughout most of the Caribbean, Africa, the Middle East and Asia, our visibility, indeed, our very existence, is constantly under attack from municipal, national and religious leaders. Additionally, nationalist, fascist, neo-nazi, religious fundamentalist and other right-wing groups, homo- phobes all, are on the rise throughout the global theater. A common, often uniting factor for all these groups and more is a driven determination to prevent Pride activity of any kind. This makes Pride organizing, and LGBTI human rights activism, for What Does YOUR Pride look like? that matter, difficult, dangerous, and all too often … deadly.
