Read MoreAt Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras, our partnerships are vitally important to us. Our family of partners provide critical investment in our organisation to enable us to put on two significant events in NSW for free – Parade and Fair Day. Our partners increase the capacity of our organisation to deliver phenomenal events with a significant impact on our communities both in NSW, across Australia and the world. We bring hundreds of thousands of people together every year, strengthening community connections, building loving and safe spaces, and ultimately – saving lives.
For half a decade Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras has called upon our Ethical Charter framework during the final stages of prospective partnership opportunities. This ensures we enter into relationships with organisations who share our values and commitment to our communities, and who actively advance our communities’ missions through their audiences, processes, staff and strategies. Simply put, the Ethical Charter framework is the foundation our relationship is built upon and reassures our communities of organisations alignment and active allyship.
If you would like to discuss partnership opportunities at Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras, please contact our Partnerships Team: partnerships@mardigrasarts.org.au.
We want to partner with industry leaders in Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion – who champion DEI as an integral part of their organisation and culture.
We want to partner with organisations with a shared vision of a fair and just world, who share a commitment to human rights and environmental sustainability.
We want to partner with long-standing supporters of our community, who want to stick by us for the years to come, and share a commitment to a strong and transparent partnership.
We want to partner with organisations who share a deep and authentic commitment to our communities, who align with our values, and are genuinely invested in seeing our communities thrive.
The Ethical Charter process is designed to ensure full alignment with our values and principles, that provides the Sydney Mardi Gras Team and Board, as well as our partners the confidence to progress with the partnership – grounded in a robust and accountable ethical process.
