According to spokesman Harold Kooden, "Since the conference was only for three days, it focused primarily on maximizing ILGA's work in the regions, networking, and furthering its influence in world conferences." New member groups attended from Latvia, Pakistan, Albania and the Philippines. Kooden said ILGA is "progressing with our efforts for reinstatement as a non-governmental organization in the United Nations."
"Our work is still being done by volunteers and only two staff people who are not paid full-time," he said. For more information: ilga@ilga.org. |
The International Lesbian and Gay Association, a consortium of
hundreds of gay organizations from around the globe, staged its
annual conference in Rome in conjunction with the recent World
Pride Rome 2000 celebration.
