Pride Wide is a narrative change engine for the LGBTQIA+ community.

Through journalism, social media and storytelling, we counter misinformation and tell compelling, relatable stories about LGBTQIA+ people. We use this website, social media, video, podcast, live events and more to bring these stories and investigations to the public. And we work with partners and our community to ensure more people are telling the truth about LGBTQIA+ lives and spreading the word far and wide.

Pride Wide is not just a charity but also a movement. We encourage our supporters to tell their own stories, so you can win hearts and minds too. Together, we make change happen.

Our partnerships

We are proud to work with a range of partners from civil society, business, media and more to advance our mission.
