Cork Pride’s mission is to celebrate the diverse culture of corks LGBT community, by providing various activities and functions to promote and engage in educational, civic and cultural activities in order to enrich the lives of LGBT people and the community as a whole and to work together to achieve a common goal. Cork Pride started from humble beginnings in 2002 and has grown from strength to strength ever since. It is normally held each year around the August Bank Holiday Weekend. Work with Pride: ‘Work With Pride’ Diversity and Inclusion conference and will feature a stellar and diverse line up of speakers who will provoke and stimulate discussion to heighten the profile of professional role models, in addition to identifying how we can augment and amplify the voices of people from diverse backgrounds, whose unique experiences and challenges may not usually have a prominent role in shaping the dialogue around sexual orientation and gender identity/expression in the workplace.
