Our mission: to educate, inform and raise awareness

-Counter homophobia, lesbophobia, biphobia, transphobia, and all other forms of discrimination, prejudice, and negative attitudes towards sexual diversity and the plurality of gender identities and expressions;
-Promote their equality and respect for their rights;
-Contribute to their well-being and fulfillment, as well as that of their loved ones, throughout their lives;
-Identify and respond to emerging issues and needs.
