LGBTI+ activist-led group supporting China’s LGBTI+ movement by bringing resources and visibility to the community.

WHO WE ARE

We are a collective consisting activists of different genders and sexual orientations.  Our members are currently located in mainland China, other parts of Asia, and Europe. Our combined expertise includes grant-making, grassroots organizing, research, rights advocacy and awareness-raising on LGBTI+, women’s rights and other intersecting issues. We work in Chinese and English.

MISSION AND VISION

We are an organisation led by LGBTI+ activists inside and outside mainland China. We have a vision of a more just, equal and inclusive China where LGBTI+ live a life with dignity. Our mission is to bring resources to the Chinese LGBTI+ movement and serve as a bridge internationally.

MEDIATE GOAL

Our short-term goal is to find and distribute funding for domestic LGBTI+ organizations and activists. We will develop processes to make sure we are accountable to our communities, in particular responsive to organisers who remain in the mainland.

WHAT WE DO

Supporting Chinese LGBTI+ movement getting through challenging time and continuously empower the community to champion the change.

Secure support to grass-root LGBTI+ activism

Although the civil society space for LGBTI+ activists and organizations is shrinking sharply, grass-root LGBTI+ groups and individual activists are still finding their way to continue their activism: organizing the community event, telling their stories on social media, supporting the community with legal aid and provide psychological support, etc. We are helping these grass-root activism to fund raise internationally and securely bridge the fund to them.

Support queer activists at risks

Activists and community leaders in China are under growingly serious political pressure. They and their family members and colleagues have been regularly questioned, harassed and intimidated so as to stop their activism. Some even have detained, forced disappeared or arrested. They’re suffering serious mental pressure as well. To support these LGBTI+ human rights defenders, we are providing short-term relocation program and well-being program to help these activists under risks to get through these difficulties and recover their energy to continue their activism.

Research and strategy development

Research are conducted to better understand the current situation and needs of the movement and the community. In one way, this helps international community to better understand on what have been happening to the movement. In another way, research report on media, laws and the activism tactics will help to develop new strategies for the movement together with the activists on the ground. 

International advocacy

Aiming to bridging the community and the movement inside China with the international community, we relay the voices from our community to the whole world. Advocate for human rights of the LGBTI+ community within UN mechanism and international platforms is another strategic goal of CRCF.
