Session: Global Advocacy: how Prides can advocate effectively at regional, national and international levels

Time: 1:45 PM - 3:00 PM
Date: Friday, August 7, 2026
Location: 1.5 - Roland Holstkamer
Track: InterPride & Pride Connections

Description

Pride organizations can effectively advocate for Trans and Intersex rights at the national, regional, and international levels through Narrative Advocacy. By centering and uplifting Trans and Intersex people’s stories we drive policy change by transforming data into compelling personal stories that create empathy, shift public perception, and influence decision-makers. By connecting with audiences on an emotional level rather than just presenting facts, it turns abstract issues into relatable, human-centered stories that move people to action.
