A clear purpose and strong organisational values provide the foundation for how PrideLink KZN develops, collaborates and serves.
To strengthen connection, support and opportunity for LGBTQIA+ people across KwaZulu-Natal through community networks, trusted resources, support and referral pathways, education, advocacy, representation and partnerships.
We envision a KwaZulu-Natal where LGBTQIA+ people can more easily access trustworthy information, supportive communities, appropriate services, meaningful representation and opportunities to participate fully in community life.
We treat people as people first, with respect for identity, autonomy, privacy and lived experience.
We work toward spaces, systems and networks where people are able to participate without having to erase who they are.
We aim to communicate accurately, govern responsibly and be transparent about what we can and cannot provide.
We seek to strengthen good work already happening and build partnerships rather than duplicate services unnecessarily.
We want information, resources and participation pathways to be understandable and practically useful to diverse communities.
We intend to build appropriate governance, data protection, safeguarding and reporting practices as PrideLink KZN grows.
