Colorful promotions and workshops: First Pride Month in the Unterallgäu!
This year the district youth ring (KJR) underallgäu celebrates the Pride Month in June 2025. The initiators Paulina Schwerdel and Florian Kastenmeier actively campaign for an open and diverse society. Especially in youth centers, the topic of visibility is very important in order to give all young people a feeling of belonging. Mercury reports that you can also see colorful decorations, such as a rainbow staircase, a pride-shield and numerous flags set up.
The support of the Wohn-Baugesellschaft Mindelheim, represented by Agnes Schweiger, contributes significantly to the positive perception of the action. By beautifying the stairs to the KJR office into rainbow colors, a sign of diversity is set. Kastenmeier reports of challenges such as the repeated disappearance of a rainbow flag in the youth center, which he consistently replaced.

The KJR has put together a colorful program for Pride Month, which includes workshops and creative actions in the youth centers of the Unterallgäu. These events are designed in such a way that also not queer adolescents are given the opportunity to deal with the topic. Information on the various offers can be found on the websites and social media channels of the KJR, which want to actively inform here.
