Building Capacity to Support LGBTQ2+ Survivors of SOGIECE

This will be achieved by building managerial capacity through strategic planning; improving access to funding opportunities by developing knowledge and expertise in grant writing and diversifying funding sources; amplifying sector capacity at large by enhancing organization’s skill base; increasing access to evidence, data, information and knowledge sources by conducting community research; improving the human resources management capacity by establishing recruitment, training and retention strategies; and strengthening collaboration among organizations.
