Gay and Lesbian Equality Network [GLEN] was a policy and strategy focused non-governmental organisation with the aim to deliver ambitious and positive change for lesbian, gay and bisexual people [LGB] in Ireland, ensuring full equality, inclusion and protection from all forms of discrimination. GLEN focused on delivering change across a series of areas such as legal recognition, protection and support for LGB relationships and families; education; mental health and well-being; physical and sexual health; workplace equality and community capacity development.
