The commemoration of lesbian women-officially recognised

31.08.2021

The commemoration of lesbian women and the memorial ball have finally been officially recognised. Finally, the memorial’s committees have approved the application, which has been facing great resistance since 2016. We, the “Initiative Autonome Feministische Frauen Lesben aus Deutschland und Österreich” (Initiative Autonomous Feminist Women Lesbians from Germany and Austria) would like to thank the International Ravensbrück Committee as well as the Austrian and German Camp Community Ravensbrück, who supported the initiative from the beginning. We would like to thank all supporters, groups, organisations, individuals and scholars who have worked with us over the years to make the commemoration a reality.
