Pride by Side builds the capacities of LGBTQIA+ initiatives.
We make sure those trying to improve outcomes for LGBTQIA+ people and communities have the skills, knowledge, and resources they need to achieve their goals.
With 53% of initiatives unable to achieve their strategic goals due to insufficient capacity, our work is critically important.
We are the only organisation in Australia to exclusively provide bespoke, capacity-building support based on LGBTQIA+ initiatives’ unique needs and gaps.
Pride by Side connects initiatives with experts, resources, knowledge, and networks.
Capacity includes all the things an initiative needs to do and have to be successful. We often talk about capacity as the following:
1 · Impact and evaluation
Impact strategy, outcomes measurement, theory of change, etc.
2 · Business and Governance
Business strategy, financial modelling, operations, reporting, policy, etc.
3 · User and ecosystem
Stakeholder engagement, research and insights, user mapping, co-design, etc.
4 · branding and communications
Marketing strategy, branding, messaging and storytelling, social media strategy, etc.
5 · Systems and processes
Internal processes, knowledge management, technical infrastructure, etc.
6 · People and Culture
Wellbeing, values, diversity and equity, leadership, employee lifecycle, etc.
7 · LGBTQIA+ perspectiveS and experience
Lived experience, advocacy, networks, community, intersectionality, etc.
