The Fund is a part of the Nordic co-operation on improving conditions for LGBTI people. NIKK administers the Fund on behalf of the Nordic Council of Ministers. It opens for applications for funding on 1 September 2022.

The Fund finances projects in which at least three organisations from at least three of the Nordic countries will co-operate to promote equal rights and opportunities for LGBTI people in the Nordic countries. Projects that aim to respond in various ways to promote equal rights for LGBTI people, contribute new knowledge and promote exchanges of experience or which manifest and develop Nordic co-operation can apply for grants from the Fund.

All information about the Fund is now gathered in a message available in English, Finnish, Icelandic, and Swedish.

*LGBTI is an acronym for lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, and intersex. Although the abbreviations used in the various Nordic countries may differ, LGBTI is the acronym used in all official Nordic co-operation as it is equivalent to what is used in other international organisations.
