COGAM

[2] COGAM worked for the same-sex marriage in Spain, the Spanish gender identity law, and the organization of the Madrid Gay Parade (as well the Europride 2007) and World Pride 2017 COGAM was born in Madrid as a result of Coordinadora de Frentes de Liberación Homosexual del Estado Español's meeting (COFLHEE).

In 1988 an Antidiscriminatory project was proposed to COFLHEE (and accepted) with the inalienable demands that, to its judgment, the political parties should assume.

In 1993 it put forward a "Couples'" Bill and signed with Madrid's Community the first stable agreement supporting COGAM's activities.

At the end of 1997 and beginning of 1998, thanks to the collaboration of Centro Nacional de Epidemiología, Instituto de Salud Carlos III, the Secretary of Plan Nacional del SIDA and COGAM, one of the most important studies about sexual behavioural risks as well as the use of prevention measures to avoid infection by VIH (4) was done among the magazine readers.

Its actions and statements have often caused controversy in conservative media, as its criticism to the Vatican or its campaign in favor of the renunciation of the Catholic faith.
