At Lahti Pride we want to create spaces and opportunities for meetings, learning and for fostering a sense of community and openness.

Everyone taking part in our events should feel safe, which means harrassment or discrimination of any kind is strictly forbidden.

  • Discrimination, racism and harassment of any kind is strictly forbidden.

  • Respect the boundaries set by others and yourself, both physical and mental.

  • No means no. Stop or change your behaviour, if someone asks you to.

  • Do not make assumptions about another person’s sex, sexual orientation, ability or any other characteristic.

  • Be open and listen – do not assume or generalise anyone’s experience. Respect everyone’s right to define or not define themselves as they wish.

  • Give space! Make sure everyone is heard and can take part in the discussion.

  • It is everyone’s responsibility to uphold the principles of a safer space. If you witness discrimination, racism or harassment, step in.
