Roze in Wit meaning Pink in white. The color pink used to be color of the gay and lesbian community in the Netherlands which has been replaced by the international rainbow flag in all its variants.
Roze in Wit is a foundation that promotes the standardization of gender, sex and sexual diversity in healthcare. We do this by creating more visibility, for example through the list of LGBTI+ friendly doctors on our website.
Amsterdam Pride
Pride Amsterdam took place from July 30 to August 7, 2022. For 9 days, Pride Amsterdam is all about "My Gender My Pride".
Everyone should feel free to be themselves. It is time to pay attention to the diversity of gender identities and our right to self-determination. We have the right to deviate from the norm and the sex we were given at birth.
Amsterdam Pride was first organized in 1996, meant as a festival to celebrate freedom and diversity. It was therefore not like many other Gay Prides, which began as demonstrations for equal rights. The latter purpose served another event, which is called Pink Saturday (Dutch: Roze Zaterdag) since 1979 and is held in a different city each year since 1981.
The peak of the festival is during the Canal Parade, a parade of boats of large variety on the first Saturday of August.
Due to covid-19 this was the first Canal Pride after two years of absence.
