Pride in Empowerment, Inclusion and Community | ShareASale
With it being harder to show Pride globally in 2023, Alex – from the Awin Group’s LGBTQIA+ network: Priders – reflects on what the group has achieved so far.
As Pride season gets underway, it is important to reflect on the past year’s impacts on the LGBTQIA+ community.
Around the world, for many LGBTQIA+ people, their society has become a lot harder of a place to thrive, whether that be due to the rolling back or the slowing down in progress when it comes to their rights, the prevalence of harmful narratives or even the criminalization of their identities. So in 2023, the importance of visible Pride movements is higher than ever.
Within the tough environment there are glimmers of hope with some countries bucking the trend and furthering the rights, equity and protections of their LGBTQ+ citizens. In times like these it’s important to also celebrate the small things that can make a difference to our community.
