The Councillor&#8217;s Office of Social Rights, Citizenship and Equality, in conjunction with Colors Sitges Link, is organising the commemoration, which will proclaim the defence of freedom and the rights of the LGTBI+ community with the reading of the institutional manifesto of the Coordination Commission of the National LGBTI Council of the Government of Catalonia. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Councillor for Social Rights, Citizenship and Equality, Xavier Ripoll, asserts the importance of a day that is \u2018crucial in the history of the LGTBI+ community. The defence of the community\u2019s freedom and rights is an ongoing struggle that continues to require everyone&#8217;s cooperation to permanently work towards a more inclusive, egalitarian and free society.\u2019 Participants in the institutional event include the mayor of Sitges, Aurora Carbonell, and councillor Xavier Ripoll. <strong>The event will begin at 6 pm in Pla\u00e7a de l\u2019Ajuntament<\/strong>, which will mark the starting point of a <strong>protest march that will reach the Pink Triangle<\/strong>, the monument against homophobia, located on Passeig Mar\u00edtim near L\u2019Estanyol beach.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>At 6.45 pm<\/strong>, when everyone has reached the Pink Triangle, the <strong>institutional manifesto will be read<\/strong> by councillor Xavier Ripoll and members of Colors Sitges Link, and the traditional floral offering will be left at the monument. This year&#8217;s institutional manifesto proclaims the importance of continuing the struggle against LGTBI-phobia in a global context in which there are still countries where this community suffers from oppression and criminalisation. It also focuses on Catalonia, where LGTBI-phobia remains present in different spheres of society and violates this group\u2019s rights, especially trans people and those who are in situations of vulnerability.  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The series of actions advocated in the manifesto include rolling out Act 13\/2025 on the rights of LGTBI+ people and eradicating LGTBI-phobia; strengthening the SAI LGTBI Network as a crucial local service for victims of discrimination; improving the care, management and tracking mechanisms of complaints of LGTBI-phobia; mainstreaming the LGTBI+ perspective in all public policies; guaranteeing inclusive education; combatting hate speech; and supporting research to better identify discrimination and improve public policies.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After the event, <strong>Colors Sitges Link i<\/strong>s hosting a gathering and picnic on L&#8217;Estanyol beach for participants.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>IDAHOBIT<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">IDAHOBIT is commemorated on 17 May to <strong>mark the date in 1990 when the World Health Organization (WHO) removed homosexuality from its list of mental disorders.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>June, Pride month<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sitges is commemorating <strong>Pride Day<\/strong> with a range of activities which will last throughout the month of June, all seeking to c<strong>elebrate plurality, bring visibility to the LGTBIQ+ community<\/strong> and continue working towards the defence of their rights. Yet another year, one of the core events will be the Sitges Pride parade.
