Bilitis Foundation

Bilitis was founded in 2004 and is now the oldest LGBTI organization in Bulgaria. Bilitis plays a leading role in LGBTI activism in Bulgaria. Our LGBTI work is led by community activists fighting for protection, inclusion and respect. We believe every person deserves a safe space under the sun and we act accordingly.

Bilitis is an important advocate for inclusive hate crimes legislation and registered partnership regardless of gender. It also engages in strategic litigation for legal gender recognition and organises Sofia Pride in collaboration with other Bulgarian organisations.
