Copenhagen hosted The World Pride 2021 Human Rights Conference's largest in-person LGBTQI+ rights gathering since the pandemic began.
WorldPride 2021 Director of Human Rights Aron Le Fevre says that 215 activists received scholarships. Some of these recipients come from the 69 countries that criminalise homosexuality or have been forcibly expelled from their homes because of their sexuality.
This is the first WorldPride in history that includes, as part of the human rights forum, a full day international summit on LGBTQI+ refugees, borders and immigration.
