O Globo Changes its Logo & Brings an Exclusive Edition to Celebrate International Day of Pride

Jun. 29, 2021

As a way to promote gender equality and diversity, O GLOBO published this Monday, June 28th, a special edition for the International LGBTQIAP+ Pride Day. Created in partnership with BETC HAVAS São Paulo, the newspaper makes a thematic change in its logo, for the first time in 95 years of history, alluding to the political and social movement.

The unprecedented initiative brings a special publication for the date, which has the participation of several columnists and LGBTQIAP+ influencers, highlighting the community in different sectors. In addition, it features a super poster with the pride flag stamped in an eight-page format, with content on the back about the history of the LGBTQIAP+ movement in an almanac format.

The newspaper’s special edition follows the absence of the famous Paulista Avenue LGBTQIAP+ Parade due to Covid restrictions, for the second year in a row. “If LGBTQIAP+ pride was not heard on the most famous avenue in Brazil, now it can be read all over the country”, the digital film’s voiceover says promoting the campaign.

The cross-platform project also brings a special podcast program and three lives scheduled for June 28, 29 and 30 on the brand’s YouTube and Facebook channels to debate themes and issues of the LGBTQIAP+ community.

Every day, through its editorials, in print and online, O GLOBO has been deepening issues of the LGBTQIAP+ population in articles and actions under the values of respect for the others and diversity, in its multiple manifestations. These are also values and principles shared by Grupo Globo and Editora Globo by creating internal selection processes and people development actions.
