The overall aim of the project was to ensure democracy and rule of law, promote human rights, social security and health among LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender) communities. The more specific aim was to create a network among Nordic, Baltic and Russian/Belarusian LGBT NGOs and through sharing of best practices and future cooperation strengthen the capacity of LGBT organisations in the region.
As a result of the project:
• 9 LGBT organisations from the Nordic, Baltic and Russian/Belarusian region have strengthened their network and extended it with 35-40 more NGOs working on related issues by the end of the project.
• 35-40 NGOs have shared best practices and experiences and set up structures for continuing this.
• 18-25 organisations have innovated their service delivery, advocacy work and management of the organisations.
• 18-25 organisations have developed a “common path” – a strategy for setting up new initiatives for joint projects in the region.
