From the second half of the 20th century until today we have had many advances to guarantee equal rights for LGTBQ people around the world.

 

And it is clear that they have not made it easy for us. But if there is something good about difficulties, it is that they unite. Perhaps that is why the best that we can celebrate today is that, above all and with our differences, we are one big family.

A big huma family, diverse and inclusive.

Formed by other families.

LGBTI Families

Families formed by memebers of the LGBTI community have existed since ever. But they have not always had social recognition. Or even less, legal rights.

Although homosexuality has been decriminalized in most Western countries, there are still very few in which the right to marriage or adoption is granted.

That is why this year PRIDE BCN becomes the speaker of LGBTI families. An open and diverse space to celebrate love beyond gender identity.

Where to continue claiming that there is no single family model. That there are infinite variables that make each family unique and special. And that all of them are equally valid.

Here and anywhere in the world.

We are always families

We have created a campaign so that families are the undisputed protagonists of this edition of PRIDE BCN and tell their experience.

Here are the 11 families that took place in this years campaign:

Do you want to create your own family?

If you have taken a step as important as forming your own family, but you do not know your rights, you will not be able to exercise them:

Find out about the current legislation, inside and outside of our country.

Find out about the different ways to create a family and which one best suits your needs.

Seek help of a support group (LGTBQ entity) to accompany you.
