The Whole World is Watching
Last week we (Mark & Carrie) were proud to represent Tamp PRIDE at The InterPride World Conference in Medellin, Colombia. InterPride is a global network of over 550+ Pride organizations from 70+ countries, connecting and coordinating the efforts of all Prides on every continent. InterPride was granted Consultative Status at the United Nations in June 2023. InterPride uplifts the voices of Pride organizers and member organizations through attending UN meetings and gatherings, consulting UN mechanisms, and delivering written statements and oral presentations.
This was the first time there was a InterPride conference in South America. Over the 5-day conference there were many workshops and caucus meetings during the daytime. At night we networked with Prides from around the world. The very 1st question from ever other prides was “What’s going on with the election in the United States?” Around the world the election in on BBC, CNN, Al Jazeera and more almost every hour. Many people think the hate speech in USA is one of the reasons hate speech in their own countries is on the rise.
On a positive note. The number of Pride Celebrations around the world is on the rise. In Brazil, South American there were over 124+ Pride celebrations this past year.
InterPride besides all the year-round work, they indorse, support, and guide their “World Pride” events. At the conference 4 Pride organizations did presentations to host future World Pride Events.
