Associação LGBTI da Praia

Associação LGBTI da Praia is the capital's community organization for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex people. Based in Praia on Santiago island, the group promotes visibility, mutual support and equal rights, and is one of the local partners behind the city's Marcha do Orgulho LGBTIQ+ (Pride march). It coordinates chiefly through its Facebook page, where it shares events, awareness campaigns and community news. For LGBTQ+ visitors it is the most direct point of contact for what is happening on the ground in Praia.
