Friðarbogin

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Friðarbogin was the first organization working with the issues of homosexuals and bisexuals of the Faroe Islands. Friðarbogin was founded October 17th 2003. The main goal for the organization was to work for political, cultural and social liberation for homo- and bisexuals in the Faroe Islands. The original name of the organization was Ælabogin (the rainbow). Name change came after the orchestra Ælabogin asked Friðarbogin not to use the same name.

In november 2004 Friðarbogin joined the ANSO - Association of Nordic LGBT Student Organizations.
