“We work for a society in which no one is discriminated against because of their sexual orientation or gender identity, where all members of the LGBTQI community can live freely according to their identity, and receive appropriate support to solve the problems they might face. We promote the equality and well-being of LGBTQI people by (1) offering support services to LGBTQI people; (2) raising the awareness and promoting the self-organization of LGBTQI people; and (3) advocating for a legal system, public services and social attitudes in line with the needs of LGBTQI people.”
