What We Do
Community Building
Community is a powerful tool for belonging - and the LGBTQIA+ community is vast and diverse with folks who have so many different life experiences. Building strong and safe LGBTQIA+ communities can help elevate unique voices, and make sure that individuals feel supported and empowered.
Raising Awareness and Engagement
Working collectively, through a mix of grassroots engagement; advocacy; media outreach; speaking engagements; and research to make sure LGBTQIA+ voices are heard, highlighted, and included in high-level decision making so that everyone can reap the benefits of EVs and access to multi-modal e-mobility solutions more safely and equitably.
Provide Safe Space
EVPRIDE provides a safe space where the LGBTQIA+ community and allies can come together to share their enthusiasm and passion for EV without fear of harm or discrimination.
Research and Data Analytics
We back up all of our work with extensive research, documenting the public health impacts of air pollution, and exploring which charging infrastructure and other e-mobility options make the most sense for the LGBTQIA+ community.
WHY?
Within the mobility sector there is an opportunity to create a safe and open community where the LGBTQ+ community can feel safe, connected and respected, all while working to include their experiences in high-level decision making so that everyone can reap the benefits of EVs and access to multi-modal e-mobility solutions.
