What makes Grupo Dignidade special

Grupo Dignidade was founded in 1992 and in 1997 became the first LGBTI+ group in Brazil to be recognised by the federal government as a public-interest organisation. The organisation helped build Curitiba’s Pride movement and organises the Marcha pela Diversidade every May. Most reviews praise the support; a few reviews from 2026 describe a cool reception.

Programme
