What is the world pride?
WorldPride, organized by InterPride, is an event that promotes lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT pride) issues on an international level through parades, festivals and other cultural activities. Founded by Paul Stenson. From 2014, the 45th anniversary of the Stonewall Riots, the event will be held on a five-year cycle.
What is Wikipedia for Peace?
We think that Wikipedia needs more and better content on social movements, justice and peace in general. So we started up Wikipedia for Peace, which is a community project organized by Wikimedia. Several events will be organized in the future in different countries to create content on peace issues.
What will we do at the World Pride in Madrid?
Participants are also welcome to take photographs of the world pride in Madrid to later publish them on Wikimedia commons. We will participate in the opening event the inauguration at the Matadero. We will also visit Pride Park. Lastly we will visit the human rights summit at campus of Cantoblanco of the autonomous university of Madrid.
