ZeSIA stands for a diverse, open, and healthy community. We advocate for a society free from discrimination, where all people—regardless of gender, sexual orientation, origin, or skin color—are respected and can live as equals.

A key focus of our work is the promotion of sexual health. We provide education on HIV and other sexually transmitted infections, offer low-threshold testing services, and support individuals through counseling and guidance. At the same time, we raise awareness of gender and sexual diversity, create safe spaces for those affected, and take a strong stand against stigma and discrimination.

Through education, counseling, and prevention, we help spread knowledge, reduce fears, and promote respectful interactions.

Our goal is to help shape a Karlsruhe where openness, self-determination, and solidarity are a given.

We realize our goals concretely by our offers.
