As part of the campaign, an LGBTIQ+ team of mountaineers ascends the highest peaks of all continents, so-called Seven Summits. Pink Summits team document their journey, share their stories, organize hiking and rock-climbing community events. This campaign is not only about raising rainbow flags on the highest summits, but also about working together to make the inspirational voices of the LGBTIQ+ communities more visible.
Because of his LGBTIQ+ activism, Dastan, a founder of the Pink Summits campaign, has experienced physical abuse, threats and harassment. Through his campaign, he wants to show that the hatred and violence made him only stronger. Dastan and his team want to inspire other LGBTIQ+ people to fight for their rights, freedom, love and life in spite of injustice and cruelty.
