About

Asociația Pride

Asociația Pride is an LGBTQ+ organisation established in 2017 in the heart of Transylvania. Founded on the rich history of an informal group that has long championed LGBTQ+ rights locally, their organisation is dedicated to amplifying the voices and visibility of the LGBTQ+ community in the city of Cluj-Napoca and beyond.

As the driving force behind Cluj Pride, the sole Pride march in the region, they infuse their local community with colour, energy and optimism. Through their diverse range of activities, from workshops and support group sessions to film screenings and community picnics, they raise awareness about LGBTQ+ issues, combat discrimination, and empower individuals to embrace their true selves.

Asociația Pride's aspiration is to contribute to the national dialogue on issues affecting us and our families and take a leading role in reshaping Romanian society into an inclusive and nurturing environment where all LGBTQ+ individuals feel valued, respected, and celebrated.
