Albanian gay activists, to participate for the first time at Belgrade’s Pride

At least 8 Albanian activists will participate this year at Belgrade Pride under strict security measures.

These activists were selected among three LGBT organizations: Pink Embassy, The Alliance Against Discrimination and Pro LGBT. This is the first time of an organized participation of Albanian gay activists at the pride that was banned last year because the state failed to guarantee the security of the participants.

Civil Rights Defenders will cover the expenses for the Albanian activists, while this experience will serve them in their own preparations for a possible Tirana Pride in 2013.
