Wichtiger Hinweis
LGBTIQ*
The abbreviation LGBTIQ* stands for "Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans, Inter and Queer*".
Gender identities and sexual orientations are diverse. We are committed to ensuring that LGBTIQ* people have the same rights and opportunities to participate. We also want to strengthen the visibility and acceptance of queer identities and lifestyles in urban society.
LGBTIQ* concerns in the city of Erlangen
The LGBTIQ* Issues department supports projects from the queer community such as Christopher Street Day Erlangen. We also regularly exchange information with associations and initiatives in Erlangen and the surrounding area. We are in contact with other city departments in order to expand access to services and benefits offered by the city of Erlangen for LGBTIQ* people.

Action days
International Day of Trans Visibility
The International Day of Visibility (Transgender Day of Visibility) takes place every year on March 31. It is celebrated to highlight the achievements and successes of trans and gender non-conforming people. At the same time, it aims to draw attention to what still needs to change in order to make the lives of trans people equal.
The city of Erlangen is committed to the equal participation and visibility of LGBTIQ* (lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, inter and queer) people. That is why the rainbow flag will be flying at the town hall on March 31.
