Four major themes have been selected for the conference, which will be central to the participants' contributions: Rights & Governance, Health & Well-being, History & Culture and Resources & Leadership. These themes can be approached from any perspective: Gender, Sex and Sexuality, Trans, Non-Binary, and Non-Conforming Identities, Sexual Orientation and Fluidity, Intersex Awareness and Body Diversity, and the perspective of Migration & Displacement.

Contributing to the WorldPride Conference 2026
The WorldPride Conference program is being developed with input from activists and Pride organizers around the world and is overseen by our advisory board. They will make an initial selection and, where necessary, connect parties to ensure impactful sessions. Each session will generally have 75 minutes available. The format is flexible. The aim is to make every session as diverse, inspiring, and interactive as possible. So collaborate, present, inspire, demonstrate, organize a panel, divide the session into segments, in short: create impact with an unforgettable experience for participants.

If you are interested in participating you can show your interest via the application form.
 

Work in progress
All information will be published on our website in the coming months. Please keep an eye on it and be patient. Not all information is immediately available at this time. Registered participants will receive updates via e-mail.
