Victor Gaetan, National Catholic Register: Last year, Atlantic Philanthropies produced a document explaining the many facets of movement-building support.
“Catalyzing LGBT Equality and Visibility in Ireland, 2004-2013” described the program’s four goals:
- Deliver legislative change on same-sex partnerships and transgender identity,
- Expand “mainstream services” to include the LGBT community,
- Develop organizational capacity, and
- Increase cohesion of the groups receiving funding.
To do that, Atlantic awarded multi-year grants, funded staff positions for organizations that, if they existed, had relied on volunteers and brought in international advisers. Full report is here.
