Twenty Years After Equal Marriage: Memory, activism, and future challenges for the LGTBIQ+ community

The UAB Equality and Diversity Service in collaboration with UAB Culture and the Faculty of Law, has organised the exhibition "20 Years After Equal Marriage: Memory, activism, and future challenges for the LGTBIQ+ community". The exhibition, which forms part of the activities of the International Day Against LGBTIQ+phobia, will be inaugurated in the entrance hall of the Faculty of Law on Thursday 14 May at 1:30 p.m.

The exhibition has been prepared by the Spanish Ministry for Equality and translated by the Department of Equality and Feminism and commemorates the twentieth anniversary of the approval of Law 13/2005, by which Spain fully legalised civil marriage and adoption for same-sex couples. Through photographs, posters and historical documents, the exhibition traces the journey of the LGBTIQ+ movement from the end of the Franco era to the present day, highlighting how collective action has made a profound social and legislative transformation possible. The inauguration will be attended by UAB Secretary General Esther Zapater; Head of Equality Policies at the Faculty of Law Montserrat Pi; and Dean of the Faculty of Law Ricardo Esteban.
