Objectives

The forum will meet once every three months, in locations across Scotland, and will be governed by a steering group made up of community members and representatives of LGBT groups and statutory bodies.





The objectives of the National LGBT Forum are:
  • To improve the social inclusion of LGBT people in Scotland by using our collective strength to challenge exclusion and inequality.
  • To strengthen partnerships between LGBT groups and organisations by creating a space which allows knowledge sharing to take place.
  • To increase understanding of multiple and cross-strand issues, providing opportunities for cooperative working across the seven equality strands.
  • To promote awareness and understanding of LGBT needs within statutory bodies and service providers to ensure equality of access.
  • To support members of the LGBT communities to enable their full participation in society by consulting with members on key national decisions and by supporting participation in local democracy and planning.
