Outright International
@outrightintl.bsky.social
Outright is dedicated to working with partners around the globe to strengthen the capacity of the LGBTIQ human rights movement, document and amplify human rights violations against LGBTIQ people, and advocate for inclusion and equality.
Outright has spent 35 years defending LGBTIQ human rights worldwide. And we've never seen attacks on our community at this scale.
That's why we launched Funding Our Freedom to raise $10 million - keeping frontline organizations alive and fighting.
