On June 6, Ambassador Victoria Kennedy hosted a reception for Austrian LGBTQI+ leaders and activists at her residence. In her remarks, the Ambassador highlighted the U.S. commitment to advancing human rights, including equality for LGBTQI+ persons. She also thanked Pride organizer Katharina Kacerovsky-Strobl and HOSI Wien for their commitment and leadership.
As in the past, the U.S. Embassy this year once again participates in the initiative “Diplomats for Equality”. Activities include the signing of a statement in support of IDAHOBIT together with over 40 embassies and the joint marching in the parade. See more photos from the PRIDE reception.
