Spotlight on our projects

Within and beyond our core programmes, we run strategic projects and activist initiatives that respond to important moments and unique opportunities in LGBTI and wider social justice movements.

These projects are as beautiful and diverse as our global chosen family of organisations. They include advocacy weeks with activists at the United Nations in Geneva, special participation in human rights conferences, coalitions with allied civil society groups, and extended research campaigns addressing specific realities within our communities.

Each project strengthens our SOGIESC programmes through collaboration and shows how we respond to the needs of our movements. Explore the initiatives below to see where strategy meets action.
