GNetwork 360 Madrid reminded us of something essential: the LGBTQ+ community doesn’t just travel, create, and innovate — we drive economies, shape industries, and open doors worldwide.
This year, over 400 voices from across the globe gathered in Madrid to talk inclusion, tourism, business, and the future. And yes, Q***rland Media was there, bringing a Nordic perspective to a global movement that keeps gaining strength.

Madrid came alive with ideas, diversity, and the kind of energy that only happens when the q***r community shows up and moves together. That’s when bridges are built, partnerships emerge, and real opportunities take shape.

Q***rland Media was there, bringing a Nordic perspective to a global conversation.

Trans people deserve to be seen, heard, and honored every single day — not only today. But on November 20th, the International Transgender Day of Remembrance, we pause with intention. We name the violence. We honor the lives taken. And we refuse to let their stories disappear.

This day began in 1999, when activist Gwendolyn Ann Smith created a vigil for Rita Hester, a Black trans woman murdered in 1998. Her legacy sparked a global movement that continues to expose the violence trans people face and the courage they carry despite it.

This year, at least 281 trans people have been murdered worldwide. Their deaths are not isolated tragedies; they sit at the crossroads of transphobia, misogyny, racism, xenophobia, and hatred toward s*x workers. Most of the victims were Black or brown trans women or transfeminine people. Thirty-four percent were s*x workers. These numbers are not statistics — they are loved ones, communities, futures stolen.

Here in Finland, we also mark this day because the T matters just as much as every other letter in our LGBTQ+ family.

In Helsinki, a memorial ceremony will take place today at 18:00 on Tokoinranta square, organized by and . Similar gatherings are being held around the country:

Lahti – 18:00 at Fellmanin punaisten muistomerkki
Oulu – 17:00 at kaupungintalo
Rovaniemi – 18:00 at Lordi/Sampo square
Tampere – 17:00 at the old church at Keskustori

Honoring our trans siblings is not a one-day practice. It’s a commitment. It’s a responsibility. It’s love in action.

Rob Jetten: Love, Leadership, and a New Era for the Netherlands

History is unfolding in the Netherlands.
Rob Jetten, 38, leader of the centrist Democrats 66 (D66) party, is set to become the country’s youngest—and first openly gay—Prime Minister.

Openly and proudly gay, he’s never hidden who he is. His engagement to Argentine field-hockey star Nicolás Keenan, announced in late 2024 after three years together, made headlines not just for the romance—but for what it represents.

There’s a single Finnish word that carries the weight of inclusion, equality and possibility: hän. 🇫🇮

In the latest article on Q***rland Media we dive into how Finland’s pronoun “hän” rewrites the grammar of gender, opens space for everyone — and what the rest of the world can learn from it.

If we view hän as a challenge rather than just a neat linguistic fact, we begin to ask: what pronouns do we take for granted? Do we assume someone is “he” or “she”? Do our languages force choices that don’t fit? Maybe the lesson is that inclusion starts with how we speak.

Let’s talk language. Let’s talk belonging. Let’s talk hän.

Every body tells a story — and not all of them fit into the boxes society built. Inters*x Awareness Day is about celebrating those stories. It’s about honoring the beauty of bodies that challenge the binary and the courage of people who live their truth every single day.

Since 1996, October 26 has stood as a day to break silence, fight stigma, and build understanding. Inters*x people are born with biological traits that don’t fit the typical definitions of “male” or “female.” And yet, the world often responds with fear, misinformation, or attempts to “fix” what was never broken.

This day matters because it reminds us that no one should have to change their body to fit someone else’s idea of normal. It’s a call to end harmful medical practices, challenge outdated beliefs, and push for full equality and bodily autonomy for inters*x people everywhere.

To our inters*x siblings — we see you, we honor you, and we celebrate you.

To our allies — keep learning, keep speaking up, and keep showing up.

Because awareness is not just about knowing; it’s about acting with compassion and courage.

This October 26, let’s celebrate the power of diversity — the real, unfiltered, human kind.

When a stamp becomes more than just postage — when it turns into a message of love, equality, and visibility — that’s when something truly beautiful happens. 💌

Next May 2026, Posti Posti, Finland’s national postal service, will release a stunning Pride stamp designed by Finnish artist Eero Lampinen

A rainbow-colored march, full of life and movement, will soon travel across the world — carrying with it a message that celebrates our community, our visibility, and our pride. 🇫🇮✨

This isn’t just a stamp — it’s a symbol of inclusion, a tiny piece of art that delivers love across borders. Back in September 2014, Finland made international headlines when Posti, the Finnish postal service, launched a bold series of LGBTQ-themed stamps celebrating the iconic artist Tom of Finland.

📮 Finland once again shows the world how visibility can be celebrated — one letter at a time.

In the heart of Helsinki, two choirs are coming together to remind us why singing as one is still an act of power, joy, and pride.

Finland’s very first gay choir, was born in the fall of 2004 when ten men gathered around a piano with one shared passion — to sing.

Since then, the group has grown into a vibrant community of over 40 voices blending humor, romance, and authenticity.

“Our strength lies in harmony — but also in the truth behind every single voice.”

Then there’s BellaCanta (BC), a Helsinki-based vocal ensemble founded in 2002, overflowing with energy, friendship, and a deep love for music. Their signature? A unified sound, heartfelt performances, and that magical connection only real passion can create.

“Singing together isn’t just art — it’s friendship, courage, and pure joy.”

Now, both choirs join forces for something truly special: BELLA AND BOLD, a concert that promises to be a dazzling mix of energy, emotion, and q***r celebration.

On November 1, 2025, at 📍Sirenius Hall, Kalliola Settlement House (page: Kalliola), BellaCanta and Out ’n Loud will share the stage, taking audiences on a musical journey from Queen to Sonja Lumpe, filled with surprises, humor, and heart.

This isn’t just another concert. It’s an invitation to celebrate voice, diversity, and the strength of the LGBTQ+ community and its allies.

Support q***r talent. Be there, sing along, feel the music.

Get your tickets 🎫 (20 € pre-sale / 25 € at the door) and be part of this moment where music and pride become one. More information about tickets fienta.com
