Pride Week Event at the Dialoghaus

Processed with VSCO with al1 preset
A fantastic venue, engaging discussions, great networking opportunities, and a relaxed evening reception with cold drinks – that sums up our event during Hamburg Pride Week 2022.
“From the Margins to the Mainstream – What Role Do Allies Play in Advancing Queer Equality?”
This was the title of the panel discussion held on Tuesday, August 2, in the beautiful setting of the Dialoghaus in Hamburg’s Speicherstadt district. The event was co-hosted by Hamburg Pride e.V., the Ministry for Science, Research, Equality and Districts, and WELCOMING OUT.
Over the course of 90 minutes, Hamburg’s Second Mayor joined our Managing Director Vanessa Lamm, alongside representatives from HSV, the Jobcenter, and the local queer community for a lively and thought-provoking discussion. Audience members – including many from our network of PATRONS – also participated actively.
The takeaway? A lot has already been achieved in the fight for queer equality, but there is still plenty of work ahead. WELCOMING OUT offers a low-threshold way for allies to show their support in everyday life – visibly and meaningfully.
After the discussion, guests enjoyed cold drinks, continued the conversation, made new connections, and took photos in front of the WELCOMING OUT media wall.
A successful evening that clearly calls for a repeat!
A heartfelt thank-you to our panelists, moderator Markus Tirok, our venue partner Dialoghaus, our co-hosts, and all our wonderful guests.
See you next time!
