STEERING TEAMS
3. Steering team on Communication
(Responsible board member: Nanna Moe)
Through the growth of the IGLYO network and the increasing demands of members, the IGLYO board has acknowledged that its internal and external communication should be improved. This is due to the priority to give clear visibility within the public eye to LGBTQ issues, through the dissemination of correct and accurate information.
IGLYO have already initiated organisational developments in the field of communication, both in internally and externally: the development of a new IGLYO website through an established web team and the weekly news-bulletin.
Therefore we realise now it is time to take this work to a next level: a professional communication team should be established. The main goal of this team is to support the work of all IGLYO members by means of creating effective infrastructures. The responsibilities of the steering team on communication entail:
- Developing and guarding IGLYO corporate image;
- Implementing and managing IGLYO website;
- Editing and sending out press releases according to the Board request and indications;
- Editing contents of the website and weekly bulletins;
- Projection and realization of promotion material (such as leaflets, posters, House-Organ, etc.);
- Exploring the possibilities of “monitoring press and media” and correct information about LGBT issues in future projects.
The Steering team won't define a policy paper as a primary task, but it will report to the board and General Meeting of Members on its initiatives and activities.
Members of the Steering Team will be selected on the basis of their expertise on communication matters. Mission of the Team member will be to coordinate activities and manage single projects.
The Steering Team could involve occasionally, according to the projects needs, IGLYO volunteers out of the team itself. We are currently seeking for volunteers to help us in the following activities:
- Collecting and/or Editing relevant news for the IGLYO website-bulletin;
- Spell-checking and correcting all external communication;
- Designing promotional material;
