Interligne: The Canada-wide beacon for LGBTQ+ people

The purpose of ESSOGIE program is to advance social, political and economic equality with respect to sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression. Advancement towards a greater understanding of the intersection of sex and gender with other identity factors that include race, national and ethnic origin, Indigenous origin or identity, age, sexual orientation, socio-economic condition, place of residence and disability are encouraged under the Program. This 16-month project will strengthen the capacity and network of Centre Interligne to advance LGBTQ2 equality. The project objectives will be achieved through the following activities: develop tools to increase governance, management (administrative, financial, human resources) and philanthropic effectiveness; establish partnerships to better reach and serve Canadian Francophone communities outside Quebec; and improve current tools to better reach and serve Quebec’s Anglophone communities. By the end of the project, the organization will have increased its knowledge and capacity to advance equality in terms of gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, and gender expression. In addition, partnerships and collaborations will have been established or strengthened to support the LGBTQ2 movement.
