In the past year, thanks to your support, we have seen our grant partners do vital work across what we call five pillars of activism. In our most recent impact report, we shared with you the impact that we have seen our partners achieve across these five pillars. One of these pillars is building supportive communities and safe spaces. Safe houses, community spaces, gatherings and activities are a vital lifeline to many LGBTQI people, and activities like Pride marches help challenge the status quo and ensure local LGBTQI communities are visible, where this is possible. Through community, LGBTQI people can access services, such as legal aid or health services, and also come together to support one another. Pink Armenia is one partner who is doing this, providing safe spaces for members of the community who face discrimination and violence for being LGBTQI. With the LGBTQI community there facing violence, arbitrary arrest and abuse, a safe space for the community is vital. One of the community members using the space explained: “Before visiting Taniq, I didn’t know if there were other people like me in Armenia.” After learning about Taniq, they found an entire community of people who were just like them, saying: “When you live in a society where you have to hide yourself, it’s very important to be able to meet other people like you, to learn about different things, and to be yourself.” For more stories of impact, read our annual impact report linked below! https://buff.ly/4253eXA
