The purpose of this group is to provide an opportunity for LGBT aid and development workers to come together, have fellowship and network with each other. There are a lot of us out there but not a place for us to meet! We hope this group changes that. This is an inclusive group, encouraging members to “come as you are”. We encourage and seek diversity and want everyone who attends to feel welcome.
They have three goals – community for gay aid workers, advocating for better org policies in aid and development organizations, and providing resources to both orgs and gay aid workers on subjects such as HR and deployment.
