Kuir Kıbrıs Derneği/Queer Cyprus Association

Queer Cyprus is a civil society movement that started off as “Initiative Against Homophobia” in 2008 in order to change discriminatory law in the north part of Cyprus and to mold public opinion in regards to Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans and Intersex rights and freedom. The movement, which was renamed Queer Cyprus in 2012, fights for a world in which individuals do not face discrimination based on their language, religious belief, color, nationality, sexual orientation, gender identity, sexual expression, age or ethnicity. Therefore, the Queer Cyprus movement embraces diversity, opposes all mechanisms of pressure and has a feminist, antimilitarist, ecologist and veganist nature.
