Statement:
The regional LGBT portal Queer.hr follows topics of relevance for the LGBT population in Croatia and the Balkan region, as well as on the global spectrum. The highlights of the content are the interviews with influential figures of cultural and political scene in the region, coverage of legislative and political developments, live coverage of Pride marches in Croatia and Balkans, following of discrimination and hate crime cases, and involvement in the actions of civil society organisations as well as calls for collaboration towards the LGBT community.

Collaboration with other organisations is accomplished in the forms of media partnerships, engagement in their activities (researches, campaigns, cultural events) and a collaboration with a network of media has been established which regularly take over the content from Queer.hr portal.
