SUPERBIA By Manchester pride - evaluation framework consultant
Superbia is the year round cultural programme of Manchester Pride. They received new funding for artists commissions and support /activity with LBTQ+ people across Greater Manchester, who are further marginalised because of additional imposed barriers such as racism, ableism, and fluid identities of gender and / or sexuality. This sets out Superbia's longer term strategic and creative direction, and the need to understand the social impact of their work. I'm helping them create an evaluation framework and toolkit to do just that.
