Egetérted

Egetérted is a Hungarian non-profit organization founded in 2015 with the mission of supporting LGBTQ+ individuals and promoting equality and acceptance in Hungarian society. The name "Egetérted" translates to "For You" in English, reflecting its commitment to advocating for the rights and well-being of LGBTQ+ people.

The organization operates through various initiatives, including educational programs, public awareness campaigns, and direct support for marginalized communities. Egetérted collaborates with local and international partners to address issues such as discrimination, hate crimes, and social exclusion faced by LGBTQ+ individuals. It also provides counseling, legal assistance, and networking opportunities for those in need.

One of the key focuses of Egetérted is raising awareness about LGBTQ+ rights through media outreach, public events, and partnerships with schools and universities. The organization emphasizes the importance of inclusive education to foster understanding and reduce prejudice among younger generations. Additionally, it engages in advocacy efforts to influence policy and legislation in favor of LGBTQ+ rights.

Egetérted has faced challenges due to Hungary’s conservative political climate, where LGBTQ+ rights have been increasingly restricted in recent years. Despite these obstacles, the organization continues to advocate for progressive change, supporting vulnerable groups such as transgender individuals, non-binary people, and LGBTQ+ youth.

The group relies on volunteer efforts and donations to sustain its activities. Its work extends beyond Hungary, sometimes collaborating with international organizations to amplify its message and support global LGBTQ+ rights movements. Egetérted remains a vital resource for the Hungarian LGBTQ+ community, offering solidarity and practical assistance to those who need it most.
