Mission statement:	Kaleidoscope Australia Human Rights Foundation is a not-for-profit organisation committed to promoting and protecting the human rights of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex people in the Asia Pacific region. We work directly with local activists to enhance their capacity to combat prejudice, hostile authorities and discriminatory laws, helping them achieve the freedom and equality essential to living a life of dignity. We strive to be respectful of the local nature of many of the debates around LGBTI rights and issues in Asia and the Pacific, and are acutely aware of the risk of being perceived as neo-colonialist. With this in mind, we never take any action without first engaging in extensive consultation with local activists, to ensure we are giving full force and effect to their aims and wishes.
