About ILGA-Europe

ILGA-Europe is the European and Central Asian Region of the International Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans & Intersex Association (ILGA). As a driving force for political, legal and social change, ILGA-Europe are a membership-based organisation bringing together over 750 organisations from 50+ European and Central Asian countries, making it an excellent platform for joint advocacy and movement development. As part of its mandate ILGA-Europe both advocates for human rights and equality for LGBTI people in Europe and Central Asia; and strengthens the LGBTI movement across the region through resourcing, strategising, and knowledge-building work.

Responsibilities of the consultant(s)

In a broad outline of the process, the consultants will undertake:

  • Defining the project scope and process: Host a session with internal stakeholders to define the scope of the work and the process by which it will be completed.
  • Movement-building analysis: Assess how well our current communications highlight our role in building and sustaining the LGBTI movement across Europe. Evaluate how our work with grassroots organisations, activists, and allies is communicated, and identify gaps in visibility or perception.
  • Analysis of narrative framing around movement leadership: Analyse the messaging we use to present ourselves as a thought leader and innovator in the LGBTI movement. How can we better frame our leadership role within a broader social movement context?
  • Evaluation of engagement through social media and digital platforms: Evaluate how effectively our social media and digital platforms connect us to movement actors, activists, politicians and supporters. Explore opportunities for creating a sense of solidarity and shared purpose within our online communities.
  • Evaluation of audience perceptions of ILGA-Europe’s role in movement-building: Examine how our target audiences—activists, grassroots organisations, policymakers, and the public—perceive our role in the LGBTI movement. Are we seen as a key movement driver? Where can we enhance this perception?
  • Media engagement strategy for movement amplification: Analyse our relationships with media outlets across sectors and identify opportunities to increase coverage of our movement-related work, such as coalition-building, grassroots support, and intersectional activism.
  • Analysis of team role divisions: Assess the effectiveness of the communications team and their work flows and cohesion with the other teams.
