The Queer Prize Lichtenberg is an important initiative to honor the commitment and support for the Queere Community in Lichtenberg. It is a step towards more acceptance and inclusion in society. By awarding people, companies or organizations that actively work for the concerns of LSBTIQ* people, the visibility and recognition of the queer community are strengthened. This helps to create an open and tolerant environment for all citizens.

Historically, queer people have had to deal with discrimination and exclusion for a long time. The Queer Prize Lichtenberg is therefore an important symbol for progress and recognition of diversity and tolerance in society. The award makes positive examples of support and solidarity visible with the queer community.
