Egale Canada

Published purpose

Through this 27-month project, Egale Canada will work to reduce and prevent anti-2SLGBTQI hate through strategic relationship-building, education, and knowledge mobilization. 2SLGBTQI communities and allies will be engaged to gain a deeper understanding of the critical issues faced by 2SLGBTQI individuals in the broader social and legal context of anti-2SLGBTQI hate. The project will identify the context of anti-2SLGBTQI hate by mapping existing resources and conducting surveys and polls to pinpoint initiatives for reduction and prevention, and strengthen community relationships by utilizing outreach, conferences, knowledge translation and empathy-building efforts. Educational products and training will be developed such as digital conversation guides, learning resources, and workshops designed to combat anti-2SLGBTQI hate which will be mobilized through Egale’s free and accessible online Rainbow Action Hub. This project will be developed with an intersectional approach, incorporating Gender-Based Analysis Plus (GBA Plus) in the creation of resources and the training of project facilitators.
