Programme architecture

Three directions, two systems, one logic

Three directions of direct support for people and institutions — and two cross-cutting systems that turn cases, requests, and research into evidence, tools, and recommendations.

Direction 1

Legal protection and family safety

Legal hub, legal preparedness, lawyers, notaries, strategic cases.

Direction 2

Institutional non-discrimination

Local authorities, universities, response protocols, readiness index, training products.

Direction 3

Community resilience

Psychosocial referral, digital safety, a partner map of services.

System 1

Evidence and monitoring

Research, hate-speech risk monitoring, analytical reviews.

System 2

Communication and safety

International advocacy, data protection, ethical work with personal stories.

Sustainability

Partner-led delivery

The Bureau holds quality, standards, and results monitoring, and scales specialised services with partners.

Evidence base

What already works — operating infrastructure, not promises

The Bureau has documented systematically since 2022. These systems are already public and running — a donor can verify capacity before funding, not after.

Public monitoring Open aggregated data on hate-speech risks, updated daily. monitor.lgbt.in.ua → ECtHR registry 165 landmark SOGI judgments of the European Court of Human Rights, openly accessible.

Each direction has its own support logic, result, and partner type. Switch tabs to see the focus quickly.

Programme support

Institutional programme support

Support for the team, monitoring and evaluation, participant safety, financial control, and core operational infrastructure.

  • Programme funding 2026–2030.
  • Separate budget scenarios: minimal, medium, full.
  • Public reporting and donor dialogue.

Expected change: a stable team and systems let the programme run the full cycle without losing quality or accountability.

Who it's for

How we work

Safety, ethics, and accountability

Working with LGBTIQ+ people in a wartime context requires data protection and a do-no-harm principle at every step.

Do-no-harm principle

No personal data, raw requests, or harmful content in public materials — only safe aggregates.

Data protection

GDPR and Ukraine's Law on Personal Data Protection. Internal notes and legal-case details are never public.

Participant safety

Safe referral and support that minimises the risk of re-traumatisation when reaching out.

Financial accountability

Registered organisation (EDRPOU 41591439), financial control, and public donor reporting.
