Pink Human Rights Defender NGO

“Pink”, a non-governmental organization for human rights defenders, was founded in 2007. The organization is known to its beneficiaries and the public as Pink Armenia.

Pink is a community-based LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender) organization, which means the LGBT community has established the organization, serves and supports the needs of the community, promotes the LGBT persons’ human rights protection process, and advocates for the change of public policy around LGBT issues.  

In 16 years, the organization succeeded in being known for its transparent, open, and dedicated work. Pink has become an internationally recognized and trusted organization from a small local organization. The organization has established a solid partnership with local and international organizations in sexual health, human rights protection, the fight against discrimination, and gender issues.

Pink Armenia, its staff, and its members are an active social group and are involved in different civic, political, and cultural initiatives and movements in Armenia that address various issues that ensure the democratic growth in Armenia.
