Useful information about LSVD's human rights foundation, the Hirschfeld-Eddy-Foundation
Through international networking and cooperation with partner organizations in the Global South and Eastern Europe, the Hirschfeld-Eddy-Foundation provides direct assistance for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersexual (LGBTI) people being threatened.
We support national and international LGBTI-Human-Rights-Campaigns by providing information, raising public awareness and building alliances. We constantly work to convince those responsible for foreign policy, development cooperation and human rights policy. We support the work of human rights advocates and promote campaigns against homophobia and prosecution.
The Hirschfeld-Eddy-Foundation was founded in 2007 as the human rights foundation of the Lesbian and Gay Federation, Germany.
