Outright International is in an unparalleled position to be heard during Pride across the globe as anti-LGBTIQ movements surge and Pride celebrations face limitations. As we continue our Outright Proud initiative to foster a truly global celebration of Pride, overcome challenges, champion progress for the LGBTIQ community, and continue to make the invisible visible, we want to focus on what brings us together. Our families.
All families are different. All families are changing.
They evolve with every relationship. Family may be where we live or who we live with, who we spend the holidays with. Or whose birthdays we celebrate. Whether we're born into it, we marry into it, we create it or we choose it.
Outright is celebrating all the families of the LGBTIQ community around the world, in all their wonderful shapes and sizes, for the support they provide and the pride that they create.
No family is the same as anyone else's. No one else's family is the same as yours. That's what makes them yours. That's what makes them Family.

Pride Around the World
Pride was born as an act of resistance. Yet everywhere that Pride takes place, repression remains a fact of life. Even where visibility is celebrated, and equality has been achieved under the law, heterosexuality is a presumed norm, and restrictive gender binaries persist. Pride – whether it looks more like a protest or a celebration – serves as a reminder to the public and queer communities themselves that queer people exist and will not be silenced. In the Pride Around the World report series, Outright International has identified more than 100 countries where Pride and other events aimed at LGBTIQ visibility occur.
The 2021, 2022, and 2023 reports were produced with support from Google.org. The 2024 is produced with support from Balenciaga.
