The Karl Heinrich Ulrichs Award is an annual award, presented by the International Lesbian and Gay Law Association in honour of a distinguished lifetime contribution to the advancement of LGBT rights. The award is named in honour of Karl Heinrich Ulrichs, a German activist who is believed to have been the world's first openly gay lawyer.
