How It Started
The Global Trans Task Force was approved by the InterPride Board of Directors during the regular monthly meeting in May 2023. The unanimous vote in favor of this task force reflects the importance to our organization and global LGBTQIA+ community.
InterPride brings together Pride organizations from around the world, therefore contributing to the global coordination of Pride efforts. InterPride has over 375 member organizations in over 70 countries, and its work impacts millions worldwide.
InterPride is proud to Partner with the #TransPeopleAreLoved and include the campaign on our social media pages, website, and by encouraging our members to join!
No one should have to suffer from hate for who they are and the #TransPeopleAreLoved campaign is a fantastic opportunity for everyone to show their solidarity with the Trans community.
