Our Mission and Vision

Homo Evolution is dedicated to advancing LGBTQI+ representation in media, marketing, culture, and tourism. Our mission is to amplify the voices of the LGBTQI+ community, foster inclusivity, and drive positive social change. We envision a world where diversity is celebrated, and every individual can thrive without fear of discrimination.

Our values are rooted in equality, respect, and empowerment. We strive to create impactful campaigns and projects that highlight the unique experiences and challenges faced by the LGBTQI+ community. Through our work, we aim to educate, inspire, and engage audiences, promoting a deeper understanding and appreciation of LGBTQI+ culture and rights.

HomoEvolution started its activity in 2010 with the aim of filling the gap in culture, information, tourism and rights related to the LGBTQI+* community. Since then, all of its activities have aimed to promote the demands of the LGBTQI+ community while contributing to visibility and representation in public presence.

Through the organization of festivals and informative workshops we promote culture and tourism related to the LGBTQI+ community while through our publications and websites we promote information and communication. Finally, we develop and coordinate awareness campaigns and strategies concerning the LGBTQI+ community in Greece and Europe.
