This spot without doubt was earned due to the tireless work of the human team of SOMOSGAY and the Paraguayan LGBT Federation, who throughout the year have contributed creativity, effort and dedication towards the Paraguay without discriminations and exclusions, free of homophobia and sexism that we all dream of.
Along this path we must highlight the great accomplishments such as: the signing of the agreement of fight against homophobia with the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the first Kiss-in 2010 for equality, the First LGBT and Straight Equality Parade. And also the participation in the International AIDS Conference in Vienna, Austria, and the representation of Paraguay in the Preconference Specialized in HIV and Gay Males in Vienna 2010, organized by the Global Forum on MSM and HIV (MSM-GF); the participation of the elaboration of the First Regional Proposal of Work on HIV for MSM through ASICAL. In 2010 the historical Festival for Equality and Freedom took place, as a response to the homophobic fundamentalism of the conservative sectors, the elaboration of the equal marriage bill in Paraguay. With great success, Paraguay was represented in the Social Summit of the MERCOSUR as a social movement in the closing of the summit with the Bureau of Presidents.
With great work and pride we opened the first community center of voluntary counseling and testing in Asuncion, thanks to the support of the American Foundation of AIDS Research (amfAR)
We hope to keep celebrating together with more success towards the path of equality and freedom in Paraguay.
