Lesbo is a Slovenian quarterly lesbian magazine that focuses on politics, society, and culture edited by Natasa Velikonja and designed by Irena Woelle. "[Lesbo magazine] promotes politics, stories and views, arts and attitudes, practices and theories about the resistance and radical fights against homophobia and any other exclusive orientations. As such it participates in wider civil, political, social, and cultural efforts aiming at breaking the massive walls of civil apathy, political ignorance, ideological terror, and mind exploitation." (cf. http://www.ljudmila.org/lesbo/lesbo_1112summary.htm)

Still operational through the present day, the SKUC continues to run queer events and runs an LGBT historical archive in Slovenia.
