“All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights.”
– Article I of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights
UNA Pride takes direction from the interests and passions of current UNA-USA members, who convene in person and virtually, to advance important and timely issues related to LGBTI rights. UNA Pride champions have attended high-level events at the United Nations, march for LGBTI equality in Pride events across the country, organize local events connecting LGBTI equality to the Sustainable Development Goals, and take action to support UN initiatives like the Free & Equal campaign.
“I appeal to all governments and societies to promote the values of tolerance and respect for diversity, and to build a world where no one has to be afraid because of their sexual orientation and gender identity.”
António Guterres
UN Secretary-General
