Our Outreach

Kaleidoscope Trust supports partners across the Commonwealth and beyond to work for a world where LGBTI+ people everywhere can lead free, safe and equal lives.

Where we work

Kaleidoscope Trust is part of the global LGBTI+ human rights movement. We are based in the UK, where we work with Government and other partners to advocate for LGBTI+ people across the Commonwealth and beyond.

This map shows the areas where we are currently supporting partners to carry out on-the-ground work to help ensure all LGBTI+ people can live free, safe and equal lives. Because of the sensitivities of working in jurisdictions with high levels of discrimination against LGBTI+ people, some of the countries in which we are currently supporting work are not listed.

1. Africa: including Botswana, Cameroon, Kenya, Malawi, Mauritius, Namibia, Rwanda, South Africa and Zambia

2. Asia: including Bangladesh, India, Malaysia, Sri Lanka and Thailand

3. Caribbean:  including Antigua & Barbuda, Barbados, Grenada, Jamaica, St Kitts and Nevis, St Lucia and St Vincent and the Grenadines

4. Europe: Kaleidoscope Trust is based in London, UK and works with the Government and civil society in the UK and beyond

5. Pacific: including Fiji and Tonga

We also host the Secretariat to The Commonwealth Equality Network which brings together representatives from LGBTI+ rights organisations in 46 Commonwealth countries. More information on the Network is available here.

Examples of work we’ve supported around the world
