June is the global LGBTQ+ Pride Month. It is a month-long celebration and recognition of the LGBTQ+ (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, and others) community, their history, and their ongoing struggles for equal rights and acceptance. In UP Diliman, it is a time for celebration, activism, and reflection, honoring the contributions and resilience of the Filipino LGBTQ+ community while advocating for a more inclusive and equitable society.
